Large accessible block ideal for grazing, cropping or amenity use near Shaftesbury.
16.93 acres (6.85 ha) of productive pasture, arable capable
A substantial 16.93-acre block of productive pasture land lying between Shaftesbury and Gillingham, offering regular-shaped fields and attractive rolling-valley views. The holding sits on Grade 3 Kimmeridge Clay and Gault soils and is suited to grazing, forage production or arable cropping; adjacent mature woodland provides useful shelter and visual amenity.
Practical access is strong: a 30 ft double-gated entrance opens directly off the B3081 and a metered mains water connection serves the land (meter located within Lot 2; if sold in separate lots an easement will be reserved). There are no public rights of way across the fields and the parcel is outside National Landscape and Nitrate Vulnerable Zone designations.
Important considerations: the land is occupied under tenancy with vacant possession available from 30 March 2026. Broadband speeds are very slow locally, although mobile signal is excellent. Buyers should check access rights, any easements, and whether tree preservation or other environmental protections apply along the woodland edge before purchase.
Viewing can be undertaken on foot; please secure gates and avoid disturbing crops or livestock. The holding suits farmers, investors or purchasers seeking a significant rural block for agricultural or amenity use close to Shaftesbury.
