Summary - Lot 3 - Raygill House Farm, Ramsgill, Harrogate HG3 5RT
1 bed 1 bath Farm Land
Large freehold pastoral holding with hefted flock potential and AONB views.
Approximately 79.21 acres (32.05 ha) of ring-fenced allotment pasture
Lot 3 at Raygill House Farm offers an extensive, ring-fenced block of pasture extending to approximately 79.21 acres (32.05 ha). The block is well walled, divided into four parcels with a small set of sheep pens and hard-track access from the village, making it ready for livestock management and on-foot inspection. Natural springs serve much of the land and the lot includes the 332 Sheep Gaits over Ramsgill Moor, supporting the management of a hefted flock.
The land sits within the Nidderdale AONB and delivers unbroken countryside views and a remote, tranquil setting. Its freehold tenure and very low local crime make it a secure holding. There is fast broadband to the area, but no mobile signal on the lot — an important consideration for modern farm operations and emergency communications.
Practical limitations are significant and should be acknowledged. The soils are mainly Grade 5 (Winter Hill series): thick, very acid raw peat that is poor for arable cropping and will limit stock carrying capacity compared with improved pasture. Peatland management, wall maintenance and internal fencing will require ongoing investment. The remoteness that gives the site its value also means limited immediate local services.
This lot will suit buyers seeking a substantial pastoral holding for grazing, hefted flock management, conservation or low-intensity agricultural use. It also offers scope for diversification or environmental stewardship schemes, subject to planning and regulatory consent. Buyers should budget for peatland management, field repairs and adaptations to operate effectively in a remote setting.
