DESCRIPTION: The Land adj. The Ark comprises approximately 1.22 acres (0.49 hectares) of level grass paddock within an attractive rural setting. The land is broadly flat and has historically been used for vegetable and flower growing but more recently left to grass. Surrounding development comprises residential dwellings to the south, further residential properties across the lane to the west, and a pheasant hatchery and dwelling to the north. This context creates a strategic setting for planning purposes despite its countryside designation.
The paddock is enclosed by mature hedgerows and trees, providing good natural screening and clearly defined boundaries. There are three existing storage structures on the land, comprising a timber-framed, corrugated metal-clad building in poor condition, a timber-framed and clad shed with an asbestos/fibre cement roof, and a metal-framed building with concrete cladding and a single garage door, also roofed with asbestos/fibre cement. These structures are semi-permanent but of limited intrinsic value. Please note, due to the poor state of repair of these buildings, we advise entry is strictly prohibited.
