Lot 2 Land off A519, Forton Road, Newport, Shropshire, Staffordshire, TF10

A rare opportunity to purchase a useful block of grassland, found within close proximity of the charming and popular market town of Newport.

The land, which totals 5.47 Acres (2.21 Ha), is divided in to two paddocks by a small brook. Lot One which is to the north comprises 4.15 Acres. Lot Two, which is to the south, closest to Newport, comprises 1.32 Acres.

The land benefits from roadside access from the A519 via two gateways and is reasonably well-fenced with a mixture of mature hedgerows and post and rail fencing. The boundary between Lots 1 and 2 will require fencing if the land is sold separately and this will be the responsibility of the buyer of Lot 1.

The River Meese lies to the north of the land and forms the northern boundary and at this point the river delineates the border between Staffordshire and Shropshire with the land lying within Shropshire. This small watercourse is home to a wide range of wildlife and birdlife with an interesting selection of wildlife having been sighted in the area. A small tributary runs through the land and forms the divide between Lots 1 and 2.

The land is ideal for equestrian, smallholding or amenity use and is classified as a mix of Grade 2 and Grade 4 on the Agricultural Land Classification (ALC) system. The land is within a NVZ ( Nitrate Vulnerable Zone).

Planning Clawback

The land is sold subject to a development clawback. In the event that planning permission is granted within the next 25 years for the land to be used for any purposes other than equestrian or agricultural use then the sellers or their heirs will be entitled to 25% of the increase in value.
