Description
SITUATION
Situated within a traditional Mendip Hills farming landscape characterised by livestock grazing and a strong rural agricultural character, the land is ideally situated for a grass based farming system with the land commanding exceptional views of the Mendip Hills and wider Somerset landscape.
The land is surrounded by farmsteads, rural dwellings and agricultural land, providing an opportunity for purchasers to extend and expand their existing agricultural operations, or the potential to develop a new or bolt-on agricultural unit (subject to obtaining the necessary statutory consents). The land has been well farmed and managed over the years and is an exciting opportunity for potential purchasers.
Lot B
The land is situated to the north of Paywell Lane providing 10.17 acres of permanent pasture across two distinct field parcels. the land is bordered by well maintained mature hedgerow and livestock fencing to part, with some hedgerow trees present. There is a natural pond present within the southern field parcel which extends to approximately 362sq.m (surface area) as illustrated on the site plan.
The land is slightly sloping in topography to parts and is classified as Grade III and IV under the DEFRA Land Classification Map and is ideally suited for a range of agricultural, equestrian and amenity buyers (subject to obtaining the necessary consents). The land benefits from two points of access along the southern boundary.
ACCESS
Lot B: This land benefits from an independent access off Paywell Lane to the South.
STATUTORY DESIGNATIONS
The land is situated in an SSSI Impact Risk Zone, where planning applications are assessed for likely impacts on nearby SSSIs/SACs/SPAs and Ramsar sites.
The land is situated within the Mendip Hills National Landscape.
TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING
The land, notwithstanding any description contained in these particulars, is sold subject to any Development Plan, Tree Preservation Order, Town Planning Schedule, resolution or notice which may be, or may come to be, in force, and
also subject to any statutory provisions or byelaws, without any obligation on the part of the vendors to specify them. The purchaser shall be deemed to have full knowledge of, and to have satisfied themselves about, the provisions of any
such matter affecting the property.
DEVELOPMENT CLAWBACK
The land and building are being sold free of any development clawback provision.
ENVIRONMENTAL LAND MANAGEMENT SCHEMES (ELMS)
The land is not subject to any existing ELMS, as far as we are aware.
RIGHTS OF WAY, WAYLEAVES AND EASEMENTS
We have been informed that a mains water pipeline crosses part of Lot A and Lot B and understand that the relevant easement exists, which we understand connects to the compound owned by Bristol Water to the North-West boundary.
We have not been provided with a copy of the easement or informed of any further details.
The purchasers of Lot B will own the land which is cross-hatched brown on the site plan. However, a right of way for all purposes at all times will be granted to the purchaser of Lot A to provide access off Paywell Lane, via the existing access.
The property is sold and so far as required by the Vendors will be conveyed subject to all easements, quasi-easements, privileges and advantages (whether way of water, drainage, light or laying and maintaining water and other pipes or mains of any nature whatsoever) for the benefit of any other property as the owner, tenants or occupiers thereof now or have been accustomed to use, enjoy or exercise. The property is sold subject to all easements and wayleaves of telegraph and telephone poles and stays and wires, and electric pylons, pipes (whether poles and cables, water, gas and other referred to in these Particulars or not) at present erected on and passing over or under the property, and subject to the Agreements affecting the same (if any) and to the Town and Country Planning Scheme, or County, Local Authority or any other statutory
body affecting the same.
AGENTS NOTE
We have been informed that parts of the southern field parcels of Lot A and Lot B have historically had traces of lead within the soil. Over the years the landowner has regularly applied lime to the affected areas. We understand the remainder of the land is unaffected, although lime has been applied across the holding as a whole. Interested parties should make their own enquiries and
undertake any soil testing that they deem fit in order to satisfy themselves in this regard.
It is noted that at present there is no access between the two field parcels that form Lot B and it will be to the discretion of the eventual buyer of Lot B, where an access is to be located (subject to any necessary consent which may exist). In the event that Lot A and B are purchased by different parties, it will be the joint responsibility of the purchasers of Lots A and B to erect a stock proof fence between points X-Y on the site plan. The exact specification of the fence is to be negotiated and agreed between the purchasers with the fence to be erected within 6 weeks of completion.
Services & Additional Information
Services & Outgoings

Town Planning Schedule, resolution or notice which may be, or may come to be, in force, and also subject to any statutory provisions or
