DESCRIPTION
The Land At Loch Farm is a ring fenced unit of arable land lying to the south of the A92 dual carriageway and extends to approximately 114.96 acres (46.52 hectares). The Land at Loch Farm is accessed via a shared access track from the minor public road and over a flyover over the A92 onto its own farm track which runs around the northern edge of the land giving excellent access to the fields. The land is in good heart, well drained, predominately south facing and is classified as Grade 5.1 with some areas of Grade 3.2 and Grade 5.3 by the James Hutton Institute. The land is gently sloping towards the Lochgelly Burn in the south, sitting between 134 and 108 metres above sea level. The fields are of good practical size and are predominantly enclosed by fencing and mature hedging. There is also a strip of woodland to the west extending to approximately 1.49 acres (0.6 hectares).
The ground was at one time used for open cast coal mining and was re-instated in the 1980s to create productive arable ground. The land is currently down to cereal crops and has been producing good quality cereal crops on a rotational basis, with typical barley yield of approximately 2.5 tonne per acre.
There is a Scottish Gas Pipeline which runs under Field 24 as well as the A92, however the field is still safe for agricultural machinery.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
