*Please note: The photos shown are of Lot 1 at Hill Farm and are not specific images of Lot 2

Lot 2 – Land at Seed Farm
• Productive grade 2 & 3 arable and with good access
• In all about 167.70 acres (67.87 hectares)

The Farmland
Lot 2, the Land at Seed Farm, which comprises about 162.80 acres of mainly grade 2 and 3 arable land plus about 4.90 acres of woodland.

The land is bounded by mature hedgerows but having been used for arable rotations is not fenced and we understand there is no water connected.

The soils may be described as slightly acid loamy and clayey soils with impeded drainage but some of the northern fields are more freely draining slightly acid loamy soils suitable for a range of cropping.

The land has excellent access from the A4103 and can also be accessed off the B4220 and Wells Lane. There is a useful central trackway which also provides access to neighbouring property.

Situation
The location is a short distance from Cradley, an attractive village situated close to the Herefordshire/Worcestershire border, lying at the western edge of the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Set within gently rolling countryside, the village offers a peaceful rural environment combined with excellent access to nearby towns and regional centres. The surrounding landscape is characterised by open pasture and wooded hillsides with great scope for riding, walking, cycling and numerous other outdoor pursuits.

The nearby A4103 provides a direct road link between the Cathedral cities of Hereford and Worcester whilst the spa town of Malvern is a short drive to the south east, offering a wide range of amenities including supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, restaurants and a variety of cultural attractions. Ledbury, a delightful Herefordshire market town, lies around 9 miles to the south and provides further retail, dining and leisure options. There is an excellent range of schools in the region which include The Kings School and Royal Grammar School in Worcester, Malvern College, Hereford Cathedral School, Bromsgrove School, Cheltenham College and Cheltenham Ladies College.
