Lot 3 is a substantial 54.47-acre block of mixed pasture and mature woodland along the Wych Brook. The land is primarily Grade 2 and Grade 3, with well-formed enclosures and mature hedgerows suitable for grazing, cropping or conservation management. A 28m x 10m steel-framed general-purpose building and adjacent hardstanding provide useful storage and machinery access.
The woodland contains notable environmental and historic designations: a Scheduled Ancient Monument (Castle Hill motte and ditch) and part of the site lies within the Well Rough and Long Plantation SSSI. These features enhance ecological and heritage value but will bring regulatory constraints on works and management.
Practical considerations include the majority of the land lying within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone (NVZ), and elements of the holding are entered into stewardship schemes and formerly used for BPS claims. The vendor requires the purchaser to enter into an overage deed affecting the building and yard area, so prospective buyers should review the plan and overage terms carefully before offer.
This lot will suit agricultural businesses, woodland managers, conservation-minded investors or buyers seeking a long-term land asset in an established farming area. Its mix of productive pasture, accessible farm buildings and high-quality ecological features offers multiple income and stewardship opportunities, but successful purchase requires acceptance of statutory restrictions and the specified overage arrangement.
