A compact but productive block of Grade 1 arable land extending to approximately 6.58 acres (2.66 ha) north of Ely. The loamy–sandy soils with a peaty surface support a mixed combinable and root crop rotation and are currently being farmed to a high standard.

This parcel suits an investor, contractor or local farmer looking to add high-quality cropping ground close to Ely and Littleport. Vacant possession will be available after the harvest in Autumn 2024 or Autumn 2025, allowing continuity of cropping before transfer. The land is accessed off Fifth Drove and is offered for sale by private treaty; cropping history can be provided on request.
Important considerations are set out plainly: the land has a medium flood risk with naturally high groundwater and a peaty surface which can affect cultivations and timings. The sale is subject to all existing wayleaves, easements and rights of way. The property is not entered into any Environmental Scheme, and VAT may be payable if the sale becomes a chargeable supply.
