Lot 3 is a freehold arable parcel of approximately 7.66 acres (part of a 68.06-acre holding) located just outside the village of Atterby, LN8. The land is free-draining, lies on productive Jurassic limestone loam soils and is currently in arable rotation — suitable for cereals, sugar beet and potatoes. Vacant possession is available from 6 October 2026 subject to the existing Farm Business Tenancy; earlier possession may be negotiable.
This lot will suit farmers, land investors or holders seeking productive cropping ground close to the A15 and Market Rasen. The plot benefits from open countryside views, included mineral, timber and shooting rights (insofar as owned) and no flood risk. The area is classed as affluent but remoter in community character, with average local crime and typical rural utilities: slow broadband and average mobile signal.
Buyers should note several important considerations: the land lies within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone, there are no mains services or irrigation rights included, and a general drainage charge is payable to the Environment Agency. Delinked Basic Payment Scheme payments have been retained by the outgoing tenant and are not included in the sale.
There is a 25-year development overage on Lots 3 and 4, triggered by implementation of residential planning permission or sale with the benefit of permission; the overage equals 25% of any uplift in value. Boundaries are for the buyer to verify, and the sale is subject to existing rights of way, easements and wayleaves. Current rent on the whole holding is £11,030 per annum under the existing tenancy.
