**Method of sale**
The land is offered for sale by Private Treaty. The Vendor(s) and Sole Selling
Agents reserve the right to alter or divide the property, or to withdraw or
exclude any of the property at any time. The vendor(s) reserves the right to
vary any of the terms and conditions of sale or to change the method of sale
without notice. For this reason, we recommend likely buyers register their
interest with the selling agents as soon as possible, in order that they are
kept abreast of any changes to the marketing of the property.
**General description**
The block of land at Brackenhill extends to approximately 74. 06 acres (29. 97
hectares) or thereabouts and offers for sale a good block of agricultural
land. The land can be accessed directly from the public highway with some
parcels accessed via a track running along the western boundary of the land.
The block comprises approximately 56. 16 acres of productive land, currently
being utilised to grow grass and arable crops/wholecrop, with the remaining
area comprising 10. 21 acres of rough grazing, 5. 44 acres of amenity woodland
and 2. 25 acres occupied by the access track.
The land is currently not connected to a mains water supply. It is believed
the mains water supply pipe runs in the roadside verge and could be connected
to for the standard United Utilities connection fee.
The land runs from approximately 215ft to 300ft above sea level and is mainly
sown down to permanent grass. Field 2235 is a under sown whole crop stubble.
Field number 6399 currently has no fence along its Eastern boundary. The
purchaser of the land will be required to erect a livestock proof
fence/boundary, from point A to point B on the sale plan, within two weeks of
completion. The fence line will be marked out by a Surveyor from Bruce Murray
Land Agency with pegs after completion.
The land is currently let on a Farm Business Tenancy Agreement which will
terminate on the 31st of December 2023.
**Basic payment scheme**
The land is currently registered under the Basic Payment Scheme.
All the land lies in the Non - Severely Disadvantaged Area for the purposes of
the bps Scheme. The payment for the current scheme year in which the property
is sold will be retained in full, and the purchaser(s) will be required to
comply with the 2023 application and indemnify the tenant against any breaches
in the conditions in relation to Cross - Compliance.
For the avoidance of doubt there are no Basic Payment Entitlements included in
the sale
**Environmental stewardship**
