DESCRIPTION / BACKGROUNDAn attractive and well-situated parcel of edge-of-village grassland amounting in total to approximately 7.42 acres. The land lies immediately on the southern edge of Lockton village and is conveniently accessed directly from Westfield Lane.The property comprises a single, long and level field parcel that is naturally free draining, lying over light soils typical of the area, and is enclosed by a combination of mature hawthorn hedgerows and stock-proof fencing, providing shelter and secure boundaries. The parcel has been well maintained and is currently down to grass although it has recently been utilised to grow able crops.Given its location, size and configuration, the land is likely to appeal to a wide range of purchasers, including agricultural users, equestrian buyers, smallholders, lifestyle purchasers and investors. The setting also provides strong biodiversity and wildlife interest, with scope for environmental enhancement, rewilding or potential woodland creation, subject to obtaining any necessary consents.

 LOCATION The land occupies an attractive rural position just to the south of Lockton, lying within the highly regarded North York Moors National Park. This is a particularly scenic area characterised by rolling grassland, moorland edges, and traditional stone villages.The neighbouring villages of Lockton and Levisham are situated a short distance to the north. Both are well-known tourist destinations and offer a small but useful range of local facilities including a public house, village hall and café, together with access to numerous walking, cycling and bridleway routes across the National Park.A wide range of services and amenities are available in the market town of Pickering, set around 6 miles south including convenience stores, shops, leisure and recreational facilities. The town is a popular tourist location and is often referred to as the “gateway to the Moors”.The property is situated approximately 32 miles from the historic City of York where further services are available including a mainline train service to London King’s Cross and Edinburgh, Scotland in under 2 hours.
