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 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).
