Ancient Monument - There is a restrictive covenant on the property which protects part of the intrenchment that encircles the town of Bolsover. This intrenchment is situated along the southern boundary of the plot.
The covenant is designed to ensure that the monument is preserved being of such importance that it is considered to be in the national interest that no works of demolition, removal or repair of any part of the monument, or any alteration or addition to the monument be carried out without prior approval. Further details can be provided upon request.

Overage Clause - Whilst we believe that the ancient monument and conservation area status would restrict the plot from being developed with additional dwellings, the property will be sold with an overage provision which would benefit the current owners if planning permission was obtained for an additional dwelling or dwellings. The overage will result in the current owners benefitting from a 40% share of the uplift in value of the land gained at the point of planning consent for the next 40 years.
