Green Lyes Land is a substantial, ringfenced parcel of pastureland on the western fringe of Churchdown, offering open views and direct access from Pirton Lane. The 21.19-acre site sits level to gently sloping, with lime-rich loamy/clayey soils, a small stream in the north‑west corner and an identifiable natural water supply — practical features for agricultural or equestrian uses.
The land lies wholly within Cheltenham and Gloucester Greenbelt, so existing planning protections significantly restrict residential development; any uplift from a future residential consent would be subject to a 25% development clawback (overage) for 20 years. There are several public rights of way across the fields and the vendor will retain a one‑metre strip along parts of the northern, eastern and south‑eastern boundaries, with purchasers granted agricultural access only over that retained area.
There are no mains services to the site and access is via a short section of unadopted third‑party drive leading from Pirton Lane; purchasers should allow for groundwork and service connection costs if required. The land is offered freehold with vacant possession and will appeal to buyers seeking productive pasture for grazing/hay, equestrian use, amenity land or those willing to investigate longer‑term development potential subject to planning and the stated overage.
In summary: a sizeable, well‑located pasture block with natural water and strong road links between Gloucester and Cheltenham, but constrained by Greenbelt policies, rights of way, retained boundary strip and a development clawback that buyers must factor into any development appraisal.
