Description

INTRODUCTION
Moat Farm provides an excellent opportunity to acquire a 63 acre farm in the green oasis between Walsall, Aldridge and Streetly. The farm lies close to Barr Beacon and is a short distance from the Sutton Park National Nature Reserve.

HISTORICAL NOTE
The historic Moated site lying adjacent to the farmstead is a scheduled Monument with List Entry number 1008547 recorded in the Historic England website. The moat interior is accessed over a small brick bridge on the eastern area of the moat and this area has been used for vehicle and caravan storage since World War II. The former house within the moat was demolished in the 1870's.

The list entry states: 'The site has survived unencumbered by modern development and may retain archaeological deposits associated with the site and its inhabitants. Some disturbance may have taken place in the 19th Century when the site was used as a source of clay. Brickmaking was a major industry in the area of Aldridge in 1800's'.

LOCATION
The property is situated about 1.5 miles east of Walsall, a major town with excellent services and connectivity to the motorway and rail network. It is 1.5 miles from the small towns of Aldridge to the north and Streetly to the west and approximately 8.5 miles from the centre of Birmingham which lies to the south. The property is therefore very well placed for commuting within the West Midlands generally.

DESCRIPTION
This farm property has a pair of Victorian semi-detached properties which have undergone some improvement in recent years. They provide the opportunity to retain or to amalgamate or indeed to fully redevelop subject to obtaining relevant planning permissions.

On entering the farmyard, there are traditional brick buildings which subject to obtaining a relevant planning permission could be repurposed for residential or alternative use.

The farmyard is utilised for equipment and fodder storage and for the storage of caravans, an activity which has existed on the site for several decades.

THE LAND
The bulk of the pasture land is accessed through the farmyard or directly off Sutton Road or Crook Lane which divides the farm. The land is generally level and has been down to pasture for many years although a number of the parcels have historically grown arable crops. It is currently primarily utilised for hay and haylage production with some pony grazing close to the farmstead and on the land to the east of Crook Lane.

The land immediately to the west of the farm has the benefit of a planning permission with Walsall Council reference 21/1639 which allows the use of the fields for Dog Walking. The planning permission is yet to be implemented and expires on the 12th October 2024.
