This 18.27-acre (7.39 ha) Grade 3 field sits on the edge of Shipton by Beningbrough, six miles north of York. The land is level, regularly shaped and accessed via a gated entrance from East Lane, making it operationally efficient for modern machinery and continued arable or pasture use. Mature hedgerows and tree belts provide shelter, biodiversity value and attractive countryside views.
The plot offers clear natural capital opportunities: Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG), carbon capture, woodland or habitat creation, and amenity uses subject to consents. There are no current stewardship schemes, giving buyers flexibility to develop environmental or commercial projects that suit their objectives. The sale is freehold with vacant possession on completion.
Buyers should note a public footpath crosses the land and there is a 30-year overage clause that entitles the vendor to 30% of any uplift in value arising from planning permissions (this excludes equestrian or amenity uses). There are no mains services connected on site; purchasers must verify service connection potential. The field has been unmanaged for a couple of years and may require initial clearance or maintenance.
