12.26 Acres Grassland, South side of A47, Wansford, PE8

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This parcel of land currently laid to grass lies on the south side of the A47, a short distance to the north west of Wansford. Historically, it has been quarried for limestone and has been subsequently restored to a high level.

It enjoys a very visible presence to the A47 and has well-established vehicular access to the field which is also shared with the land immediately on the east side currently being quarried and in third party ownership.

LAND AND SOIL CLASSIFICATION
The land is Grade 3 according to Land Classification Map of England and Wales. The soils are of the of the Elmton 1 Series which are described as shallow, well drained, brashy, calcareous, fine loamy soils over limestone.
The accuracy of this description may vary in the mind the mineral extraction process that has taken place on the land and the subsequent restoration programme.

FIXED EQUIPMENT
There is no fixed equipment on the field - it is bare land.

SERVICES
We are not aware that any services are connected to the land. For those parties who may require service connections for any particular purpose, they must make their own specific enquiries with the relevant utility/service providers as to availability, cost and practicality of connection (if indeed available).

RIGHTS OF WAY, WAYLEAVES AND EASEMENTS
The land is offered For Sale subject to, and with the benefit of, all existing rights including rights of way whether public or private, light, support, drainage, water and electricity and other rights, easements, quasi-easements, and all
wayleaves whether referred to specifically in these Particulars or not.

The land immediately to the east of the entrance way has the benefit of access over the entrance area and Bullimores who own the land immediately adjacent on the east side (and currently being quarried) are responsible for a fair proportion of cost of maintaining the joint area - coloured brown on the plan attached to these particulars.

RESTORATION PROCESS
Following extraction of limestone, the land has been restored to a high level. The seller retains a right at all times with or without vehicles to access, monitor, maintain and remove the bore holes located on the property.

BOREHOLES - PLEASE NOTE:
An application has been submitted to the Environment Agency for the surrender of the waste permit and this is currently awaiting determination. Upon the successful surrender of the permit, the boreholes will be removed at the earliest possible occasion, the cost of which will not be borne by the purchaser.

BOUNDARIES
The extent of the land is as shown on the attached plan. Interested parties should familiarise themselves with the boundary features as to the extent of the land now being offered for sale, and specifically, these are:-

a) North roadside/roadside/A47 - a fenced boundary with shared entrance area
b) East side - Whilst the wire fence is inside the boundary, we believe that the hedge line is the actual boundary
c) South side abutting the public road is to the edge of the verge on the field side
d) Generally the wire fenced line.

Intended purchasers must carry out such enquiry as to the boundary features referred to and to familiarise themselves with the extent of the property now being offered for sale.

TENANT RIGHT/DILAPIDATIONS
There will be no claim for Tenant Right nor counter claim allowed for Dilapidations (if any).

ENVIRONMENT AGENCY CHARGE
All charges to be borne by the current permit holder (Mick George Limited).

TENURE
The land is offered for sale with the benefit of freehold tenure.

POSSESSION
Vacant possession will be available upon completion of the Sale.

DELINKED PAYMENTS
If there are any Delinked Payments arising from the cessation of the Basic Payment Scheme, these will not be available to the purchaser.

CONTRACTS AND QUOTAS
There are no contracts nor quotas available with the sale of the land.

SPORTING AND MINERAL RIGHTS
The Sporting Rights are included in the sale of the land in as far as they are owned. In practical terms, the Mineral Rights are not applicable as the land has already been extracted for limestone.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCHEMES
None of the land has been entered into any Environmental Schemes to date (as far as we are aware).

VIEWING
Interested parties are invited to walk the land during daylight hours with a set of these Particulars to hand. They should, at all times and for the protection of their personal safety, take appropriate precautions to ensure that no damage occurs either to themselves nor to the land, nor any part thereof. The entrance gate is locked so access is only available on foot.

PLANS, AREAS AND SCHEDULES
Interested parties must carry out such verification as they may require regarding the extent and area of the land included in the sale. The areas and information provided within these particulars is for ´guidance purposes´ only.

LAND REGISTRY TITLE
The land is currently registered with adjacent land (which is not included in the sale). The Title Numbers are CB194212, CB129639 & CB137968 A copy of the Titles and the plan are available upon request from the Seller´s agent.

OVERAGE/UPLIFT/CLAWBACK CLAUSE
The Vendor or its successor in Title will retain the benefit of an Overage/Uplift/Clawback condition on the sale of the land for a period of 20 years at a rate of 25% of the uplift in value. The trigger for such a payment would be the first of any of the following:

a) Implementation of a change of use on all or any part of the land.
b) The sale of the land with the benefit of Planning Consent on any part of the land.
c) Commencement of development works/building works consequent to planning consent being granted for alternative use on any part of the land.

However, this clause will not be triggered by an Agricultural/Horticultural/Private Equestrian use. i.e. Stables for privately owned horses (on a non-business footing) would be permitted.

RESTRICTIVE COVENANT
A restrictive covenant will be placed on the sale of the land by the Vendor to prevent the siting/use (either on a permanent or temporary basis) of any caravan, mobile or ´static´ or permanent residential dwelling or home or vehicle use for temporary or permanent residential/living purposes.

Should the Vendor subsequently dispose of their adjacent land at Thornhaugh quarry, then the restrictive covenant would fall away.

LAND RESTORATION COMPLIANCE
Rights of Access for this purpose will be reserved for the Vendor/Mick George Limited to allow them access at the appropriate time to remove the monitoring boreholes. They will provide reasonable notice for this purpose which is all part of the restitution process to achieve final compliance and is referred to in the Sale Particulars.
