The Land - The holding extends to approximately 132.42 acres (53.59 hectares) and comprises nine fields of established grassland, all of which is grass.

The land is well fenced throughout for sheep, with fencing described as very good and well maintained. Many of the perimeter boundaries benefit from double fencing, providing additional separation along the field edges.
Good-sized gateways serve the fields, while roadside access is available to the majority of the holding. These features provide practical access for routine stock management and the movement of sheep between vehicles and the grazing fields.
Prospective graziers should familiarise themselves with the layout of the holding before submitting a tender, paying particular attention to the position of the fields on either side of the A489 and the arrangements for accessing each field.

The land must be managed responsibly throughout the grazing term, with every effort made to avoid poaching, excessive compaction or other damage to the grassland.
