Land at Blackthorn, Bicester, OX25

The Land at Blackthorn comprises a flat, low-lying block of grassland, bounded by mature hedgerows and trees, extending to approximately 27.34 acres (11.063 hectares). The land comprises Grade 4 permanent pasture which has previously been used for light grazing and forage making. Separated by thick hedgerow, the land is split into two paddocks of near similar sizes, with a small natural pond positioned between them.

There is open-sided timber framed livestock shelter, measuring approximately 52 sqm (560 sq ft), offering useful cover for animals or storage.
