The Farmland
Lot 2, the Land at Seed Farm, which comprises about 162.80 acres of mainly grade 2 and 3 arable land plus about 4.90 acres of woodland.

The land is bounded by mature hedgerows but having been used for arable rotations is not fenced and we understand there is no water connected.

The soils may be described as slightly acid loamy and clayey soils with impeded drainage but some of the northern fields are more freely draining slightly acid loamy soils suitable for a range of cropping.

The land has excellent access from the A4103 and can also be accessed off the B4220 and Wells Lane. There is a useful central trackway which also provides access to neighbouring property.
