The Land
The land at Wester Leddriegreen extends to about 32.02 hectares (79.12 acres) or thereby. The land predominately comprises an area of rough grazing/hill land, with some permanent pasture paddocks located on the low land surrounding the property. There is a belt of mature conifer trees to the north of the paddocks which provide shelter and amenity.

The land has been classified as predominately Grade 6.3 with some areas of Grade 5.3 and Grade 6.2 located throughout as per the James Hutton Institute indicating that it has limited flexibility for the growth and management of arable crops or pasture and primarily only suitable for the purposes of grazing livestock.

The lower land is more predominately permanent pasture suited for grazing and comprises a good-sized enclosure which is bound by stock proof fencing. Further north of the property the land starts rising in gradient where the land tends to become more rough grazing. Between the paddocks and hill lies an area of mature woodland, which in recent years has experienced some windblow as a result of storm damage. Water to the land is sourced via a mixture of trough and natural supplies.
