Land size
82.81 acres

Description

TENDER DEADLINE 1PM 31ST JULY 2026

The land consists of approximately 82.81 acres (33.51ha) of productive arable land. In accordance with the Land Classification Plan of England and Wales, the land is predominantly classified as Grade 2, with some areas classified as Grade 3 towards the northern corner of the property. The land benefits from direct access off the public highway.

The soils predominantly form part of the Tathwell association, with the northern corner forming part of the Salop, consisting of well-drained fine loam over clayey soils, suitable for growing a variety of cereal crops.

The land is offered for sale by Informal Tender as a Whole. The property presents a great opportunity to purchase productive arable land in the Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Access
The land benefits from direct road access from Haugham Pastures.

Underdrainage
Due to the free-draining nature of the soils, there is no underdrainage system on the land.

Services
None in so far as the agents are aware.

Holdover
The vendor reserves holdover rights to continue to grow and harvest the current growing crop until it is harvested in the summer of 2026. Possession of the land will be given to the purchaser upon the clearance of the growing crop and any baled straw.

Ingoing Valuation
Since the vendor is reserving holdover rights, the growing crop will not be purchased by the purchaser. There will also be no ingoing valuation to pay for in terms of other acts of husbandry, UMVs and/or RMVs; and there will be no claim for dilapidations or any other matters.

Early Entry
Early entry will be available where possible, subject to the exchange of contract having taken place and payment of a non-refundable double deposit (20%).

Plans, Areas & Schedules
The schedule of areas and field numbers has been prepared within the offices of the sole agent and the information is based upon that of the agents’ mapping software. The back cropping has been supplied by the vendor.

Sporting & Mineral Rights
These are included in the sale where they are owned.

Delinked Payments
The land is registered with the Rural Payment Agency, but the delinked payments will not be transferred to the purchaser.

Flood Risk
The Land is located in flood zone 1 indicating the land has a less than 0.1% chance of fluvial or tidal flooding.

Wayleaves, Easements, Covenants and Rights of Way
The land is sold subject to and with the benefit of all existing wayleaves, easements and quasi-easements and rights of way, whether mentioned in these particulars or not.

There are two footpaths which cross the land in a North-East to South-West direction.

There is an overhead electric powerline running along the boundary of Wood Field Lower and Park, before crossing Little Fields. The right to receive future annual wayleave payments for this overhead line shall be transferred to the purchaser upon completion. The 2026 wayleave payment will not be apportioned.

There is a high-pressure National Gas pipeline known as “Theddlethorpe to Hatton”, which crosses the land in an East-West direction. The location of the pipe is marked on the ground by large red and white markers.

The owner of the adjoining woodland retains a right of way to extract timber and stone along the boundary adjoining Haugham Wood.

Further details and plans of all easements, wayleaves and covenants are available from the selling agents upon request.

Tenure
The land is being sold freehold with vacant possession subject to the holdover rights outlined above.

Planning
The property is situated within the East Lindsey LPA where the land is defined as open countryside. Any planning enquiries should be made prior to submitting an offer.
