Lot 2: Land At Abbots Sharpham, Glastonbury, Somerset, BA16

Comprising an excellent parcel of good quality arable land registered as organic and divided into well maintained manageable enclosures totalling 139.43 acres.

Location
Abbots Sharpham stands in beautiful countryside, a few miles beyond Street and Glastonbury. Glastonbury has been a religious centre throughout history and back into the times of legends. The Celtic monastery evolved into one of England’s wealthiest and most influential abbeys and the town grew up alongside it. Today it’s a small but thriving town and a major tourist venue, welcoming thousands of visitors each year.
Medieval Glastonbury – designated a conservation area - clusters around the evocative ruins of the Abbey.

Just 5 miles from Glastonbury is Wells which is the smallest city in England (population 10,000). Its centre is the marketplace (local markets twice a week) surrounded by many medieval buildings including the Cathedral and moated Bishops Palace. Immediately to the south of Glastonbury is Street (2 miles), a small town with Roman origins, a Quaker history linked to the Clark family of shoemakers and now the home of Millfield School.
