Plot 164a Stellas Field, Milchden, Blackness Lane, Keston, Bromley, London (BR2 6HL) Land Size: 0.024 Acres (Approx. 98m² / 1,054.86 sq. ft.) | Dimensions: 7m x 14m
Key Features: Commercial Agricultural & Horticultural Potential | Track Access
PRIME FREEHOLD PASTURE PLOT LONDON — PLOT 164A MILCHDEN, KESTON (BR2 6HL) Strategic Agricultural Parcel | Commercial Agricultural & Horticultural Potential ASKING PRICE: £7,500 BONUS: Service Rights, Soil Rights & Track Access
WHY PLOT 164A STANDS OUT FROM SURROUNDING PLOTS • Great Position: Quietly nestled in a peaceful corner area of the field to the rear of the site directly adjoining Plot 165 (listed at £25,000)—making it an outstanding target for plot assembly or strategic land holding in the London Borough of Bromley. • Prime Location & Aspect:
Well-maintained over the years (though currently slightly overgrown), this parcel enjoys a pleasant aspect with standard rights of access over the established track leading to Blackness Lane. • Natural Drainage & Hardstanding: Lime-rich loamy soil provides excellent natural free drainage, keeping ground firm underfoot year-round (no muddy wellies!).
Ideal for natural hardstanding to park a car/4x4, station a garden trailer, or store a freestanding water butt. • Low Maintenance: Rapid drainage naturally slows grass growth during dry summer periods, requiring significantly less upkeep and cost. • Rich, Undisturbed Soil: Fertile soil profile with neutral to slightly acidic pH. Ground along this Blackness Lane perimeter has remained largely undisturbed for over 30 years.
PERFECT FOR IMMEDIATE COMMERCIAL HORTICULTURE & NURSERY USE Under UK planning law (Town and Country Planning Act 1990, Section 336), horticulture and plant growing are classified as agricultural land use. Ideal for growing nursery stock, cut flowers, boutique plant production, raised beds, orchards, or apiary setup without requiring a change of land use.
Mobile & Temporary Use (Fully Permitted): A mobile garden trailer that is wheeled onto the site, used for work/harvest, and towed away (or kept parked temporarily while working) is classified as chattel / equipment rather than "development."garden car trailer is completely fine and legally sound, even under an Article 4 Direction.
PLANNING NOTE: ARTICLE 4 DIRECTION EXPLAINED There is an active Article 4 Direction on the site. This restricts physical development, fencing, and permanent structures—it does NOT alter the underlying agricultural classification of the land.
Under UK law, Commercial Agriculture and Horticulture are bare land uses, not "development." Therefore, an Article 4 Direction does NOT prevent an owner from utilizing the bare land for income-generating operations: • Open-Ground Commercial Horticulture:
Cultivating cut flowers, nursery stock, or specialty crops grown directly in the ground. • Commercial Beekeeping & Apiary: Positioning freestanding beehives for honey production. • Livestock Grazing & Agistment: Charging a fee to graze sheep, goats, or horses. • Orchards & Nursery Stock: Planting commercial fruit trees, Christmas trees, or saplings etc.
