Description

FOR SALE BY INFORMAL TENDER - Tender Deadline 12 Noon Wednesday 30th September 2026

Extending to 31.92 acres (12.92 hectares) or thereabouts in total, this attractive block of Grade 3 land is superbly located on the edge of Rufford village with direct access off Little Meadow Lane, a shared access track offering a private location.
The land consists of productive grassland and former arable land now lying fallow and is split over three field parcels with The Sluice acting as a natural boundary between all field parcels. The lands versatility and accessibility makes it well-suited to a range of agricultural uses, although its desirable village location and private setting also suits equestrian or amenity use.

Lot 1
Lot 1 extends to 11.04 acres (4.69 hectares) or thereabouts of permanent grassland and benefits from roadside frontage and access off Little Meadow Lane through a set of galvanised field gates, ideal for agricultural machinery, livestock and vehicles.

The land is flat in nature and bordered by stock fencing and open ditches.

Lot 1 is sold subject to a tenant due to vacate 1st October 2027. The current rent is £700 per annum.

Lot 2
Lot 2 extends to 20.88 acres (8.45 hectares) or thereabouts of former arable land now lying fallow, and set over two field parcels extending to 4.38 acres, and 16.50 acres. The land is privately located down Little Meadow Lane and offers no formal boundary off the track, meaning access can be taken directly from the access track. A mature treeline runs north to south, and encases a gas pipeline.

Notwithstanding the lands Grade 3 classification, it is considered to be of excellent cropping quality, offering great potential for a range of agricultural uses. Its private yet accessible location also makes the land of interest to equestrian and amenity purchasers.
