A rare 22.73-acre block of permanent pasture within the Lincolnshire Wolds AONB, offering long views and direct highway access from Orford Road. The parcel is laid to grazed grassland, has stockproof fencing, mature hedgerows and a self-contained pond with access to Waithe Beck — useful for livestock or habitat enhancement.
The land benefits from an existing Entry/Higher Level Environmental Stewardship (ESS) agreement generating c.£1,586 pa until 30/11/2028, which has helped restore species-rich grassland. There are no known outgoings and the freehold will be offered with vacant possession. Grade 3 soils are described as slightly acidic loamy/clayey, most suited to grassland or some woodland.
Important constraints are set out plainly: Historic England has classified part of the site as a Scheduled Monument (Orford Priory), which can complicate works or development and should be investigated before purchase. There are no mains services on site; purchasers must rely on off-grid solutions and the site lies within a Nitrate Vulnerable Zone (NVZ). A public footpath traverses the land and several permissive access features (footbridge, boardwalk, kissing gates) are in place.
This holding will suit someone seeking agricultural grassland with environmental value, a landbank for longer-term planning, or an investor looking for AONB countryside land with stewardship income. Buyers should carry out their own checks on the scheduled monument constraints, ESS continuation options, and service provision prior to exchange.
