- Approximately 43.22 acres of bare arable and permanent pasture
- Central ancient woodland with a small pond adds biodiversity value
- Superb rural views toward the Downs and High Weald AONB
- Grade 3 agricultural land; slightly acidic loamy/clayey soils
- Located within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone (NVZ)
- Parts on Countryside Stewardship until mid-2026 (management conditions)
- No recorded public rights of way across Lot 2
- Impeded drainage in places; may affect cropping and access
An unusually large agricultural opportunity on the edge of the High Weald AONB, offered as Lot 2 extending to about 43.22 acres of largely bare arable and permanent pasture. The land sits outside the AONB boundary but benefits from excellent rural views south to the Downs and north over High Weald landscapes. A central belt of ancient woodland with a small pond provides valuable biodiversity and visual screening.
The holding is Grade 3 agricultural land with slightly acidic loamy and clayey soils and areas of impeded drainage; it also lies within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone (NVZ). Parts of the wider farm are enrolled in a Countryside Stewardship Scheme until mid-2026 — helpful for habitat and income continuity but may carry management conditions. There are no recorded public rights of way across Lot 2, though an access track and rights associated with the neighbouring lot exist in the wider holding.
This lot will suit those seeking long-term agricultural, equestrian or conservation potential: it offers scope for continued arable/pasture use, habitat enhancement or inclusion in stewardship schemes. Buyers should note basic infrastructure is minimal on Lot 2 (essentially bare land), average broadband availability, and that drainage limitations and NVZ status may influence cropping choices and future planning.
