large openings on both of the gable ends. The barn has a gross external area
of approximately 2, 030 square feet (188 square meters).
To the east of the barn there is a charming flint walled yard with the base of
an old cart barn running along the northern wall. A larger grass paddock lies
to the south of the yard, surrounded by flint walls.

Lot 1 extends to approximately 0. 75 acres in total, with a separate grass
paddock area lying to the south of the yard. Access is available via five bar
gates into the yard and into the paddock to the south.
Lot 2 – The Land
Guide price £250, 000
The land extends to some 10. 58 acres (4. 28 ha) or thereabouts and lies in a
single contiguous block with gated access directly from the public road. The
land has been in arable production in recent years, and is classified Grade
III under the former land classification system, being chalky loam over chalk.
The land now offers purchasers opportunities for viticultural use, or for
grazing purposes. The field (known as Gratton Field) is on a gentle southerly
slope between 5 and 15 metres above sea level, is bounded by a mixture of
flint wall and stock - proof fencing and benefits from wonderful southerly views
to the spire of Bishopstone Church and over the surrounding South Downs.
Access: Both lots have direct vehicular access through five bar gates from the
public road.

The property is exceptionally well situated, in an
attractive and easily accessible rural location within the small village of
Bishopstone, within the South Downs National Park. Bishopstone is a downland
village renowned for its medieval church and picturesque houses, located just
inland from Seaford on the Sussex coast. Seaford has a range of local
facilities, including supermarket, pharmacy, schools and doctors surgery. More
substantial facilities are available in Newhaven or the county town of Lewes.
This area of the South Downs is becoming increasingly well known for its
vineyards, and for viticulture tourism ventures. Of particular note is the
Rathfinny Wine Estate, which is situated above Alfriston, approximately 2
miles (as the crow flies) to the east of Bishopstone.
