Lot 2 - 10.15 acres also part of the SSSI 'small-brook' Would also be suitable for environmental buyers looking to enjoy the local fauna with, mainly butterflies and other insects of note, with Road frontage for easier access.

Lot 3 - 6.90 acres of much more productive and better drained, level pasture, suitable for livestock grazing and with road frontage. The mature boundary trees provide good shade and shelter and the perimeter boundaries appear stockproof. - Auction Guide: £40,000 - £60,000
