Land size
16.03 acres

Description

The land consists of approximately 11.13 acres (4.50 ha) of arable land and 4.90 acres (1.98 ha) of amenity land or thereabouts. The land is classified as Grade 3 on the Land Classification Plan of England and Wales. The land is offered for sale by Private Treaty in two lots or as a Whole.

The Land

Both lots have the benefit of a stone shared access track indicated green on the plan across. The stock fence along the Northern boundary of Lot 1 will be moved to provide a 3m access along the registered title to provide access to Lot 2.

The soils form part of the Holderness association, consisting of fine loamy soils with a chalky till, which is suitable for growing a variety of cereals and temporary grass.

Lot 1 - c. 11.13 acres of arable land (STS & indicated edged red)

In recent years, the land has been established with temporary grass and grazed by cattle, however, the agents have been advised that the land has maintained arable status and is not classified as permanent pasture.

The Agents have been advised that the land benefits from underdrainage, however, a copy of the draining plans are not available
as far as we are aware.

Lot 2 - c. 4.90 acres of amenity land (STS & indicated edged blue)

The land forms part of the former East Lincolnshire Railway line, which closed to passengers in 1961 then closed completely in 1964. The railway and gatekeepers house has been deconstructed and what remains is a tranquil strip of land rich with wildlife. The land includes the former garden/orchard which belonged to the gatekeepers house and is suitable for a wide variety of amenity and leisure uses (STP).
