Productive Grade 2 arable land with irrigation licence and river access.
Approximately 32 acres of Grade 2 fertile loam arable land
A substantial 32-acre block of Grade 2 loam arable land arranged in two rectangular parcels, laid out for efficient cropping and accessed from Knaresborough Road. The terrain is largely flat and fertile, suited to combinable crops and root vegetables, and benefits from direct river frontage to the River Nidd.
A full water-extraction licence is included, permitting 640 m3/day (10,000 m3/year) with the current licence running until 31 March 2029. Shooting and mineral rights are included in the sale; fishing rights are reserved. The land is freehold and will be available with vacant possession after the 2025 harvest.
This holding will suit an operator seeking productive arable acreage with licensed irrigation in a quiet North Yorkshire village setting, or an investor looking for agricultural rental or diversification opportunities. Note practical considerations: the extraction licence requires renewal in 2029, fishing rights are excluded, and the sale is subject to existing wayleaves, easements and rights of way.
Practical factors to be aware of include average mobile signal and slow broadband, plus vacant possession timing tied to the 2025 crops. There is no flood risk recorded. Prospective buyers should carry out their own due diligence on licence renewal, existing third-party rights, and any specific environmental or stewardship obligations.
