Shepton Fields, Pulverbatch, Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Situation: Introduction

Shepton Fields is an exceptional, established agricultural holding. Situated between 900 and 1,100 feet above sea level, the property occupies a commanding position in beautiful, unspoilt countryside, boasting breath-taking views to the south and east towards Shrewsbury, Telford, and The Wrekin.

This is a first-class livestock farm, fully equipped with stock-proof fencing across the holding to ensure secure and efficient land management, including natural ponds and thriving wildlife habitat, offering exceptional potential for biodiversity and private conservation. Over the last 5 years the farm has been utilised as a dairy young-stock unit, and a number of the fields have been used for sheep grazing. The land benefits from a private water supply which feeds the land, buildings and house.
