Description

*FOR SALE - INFORMAL TENDER - 12 NOON, 27 MAY, 2026*
An exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial and well positioned block of meadow and pasture grassland, extending to approximately 63.67 acres (25.75 hectares) or thereabouts, all positioned within a single ringfence parcel.

Situated to the south-west of Glusburn village and north-east of Cowling, the property occupies a highly accessible and prominent position adjacent to Colne Road (A6068). Opportunities to acquire land of this scale and quality in such a desirable location are rare. The property will appeal to a broad range of purchasers, including those with agricultural, equestrian, amenity, environmental, and lifestyle interests.

Under the Agricultural Land Classification Maps, the land comprises a mix of Grade 3, Grade 4, and Grade 5 classifications, with loam soils well suited to productive grassland. The land is currently utilised for livestock grazing and forage production. The land benefits from direct roadside frontage and access via a double gated access point directly onto Colne Road (A6068). The land also benefits from a right of access over Bent Lane, accessing field parcel 4709.

The property is divided into a number of defined field enclosures, predominantly bounded by well-maintained traditional dry stone walls. The land includes natural watering and lies between approximately 120 and 250 metres above sea level, rising gently from Colne Road towards the southern boundary.

The holding also includes two small traditional stone buildings, offering potential for storage, livestock housing, equestrian or alternative uses, subject to purchasers own requirements.

Building 1: 10.84m x 6.28m - Stone under a pitched sheet roof.

Building 2: 10.36m x 4.6m - Stone under a pitched stone flag roof.
