This highly productive run of ground has been successfully used for growing potatoes, wheat, barley, oil seed and temporary grass, but would equally suit alternative cropping and livestock rearing. Access to the land is from either the yard and buildings or from the adjoining road on the north eastern boundary. It is divided in to good sized enclosures which are mainly level or gently sloping and enclosed with natural hedge banks.

Two large ponds, currently stocked with a number of coarse fish including Carp up to 20lb, are located a short distance from the yards and can be accessed via a right of way through East Barton Farm. The ponds are currently managed by a third party who would be keen to continue an arrangement if a purchaser so desired.

There is also a small range of redundant farm buildings set in the midst of the land which include a traditional stone barn, and they may have some potential for conversion, subject to gaining the necessary planning consents.

Lot 2: Approximately 34.47 acres (13.95 ha) (Coloured yellow on the plan)

Located to the west of Lot 1, this excellent block of free draining arable land is mainly level and enclosed within a single enclosure. It benefits from direct road access on the southern boundary and the majority of this field is classified as Grade 2 on the Agricultural Classification Map.
