Description
Brandshill is an attractive and private block of land with a balanced mix of agricultural land and forestry. The amenity of Brandshill has been enhanced by the forestry which has been carefully planned and managed over the last 20 years to provide sport, shelter and commercial timber. The current owner has created a number of ponds which are host to a range of wildlife. The ponds not only enhance the biodiversity of the farm but they also provide a habitat for duck flighting and bird watching.
The agricultural land at Brandshill forms five enclosures lying
to the north and south of the wood which are currently down
to grass. The land ranges from 160m to 200m above sea level. The “Brandshill Wood” is a well-established commercial
forest extending to 108 acres (44 hectares) in total which
was planted in 2007 and 2012 and is wholly made up of Sitka Spruce. A number of the compartments are ready for thinning. The woods have a very good internal network of
roads with turning spaces.
Sporting
Brandshill offers a variety of sport including flighting, stalking
or shooting. The current owner has focussed on the ponds and has created an exciting duck flighting habitat with hides
built around the ponds. The undulating land and woodland
provides shelter for deer and exciting roe stalking.
Renewable Development
The site is considered to have potential for further wind
turbines or solar panels given the areas strong and proven
wind values and south facing grassland slopes with good solar gain. There are 33kV electricity lines that intersect the
property.
Acreage: 186 Acres

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
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
