AMENITY LAND AND FISHING PONDS -

The parcel is accessed off the A149 via a shared track. Entrance to the parcel is through a gated entrance in the northeast corner.

The site benefits from two, large, ground-fed ponds which are home to a substantial carp population. There are also three fully enclosed, fenced ponds, previously used for the rearing and housing of ducks.

In addition, the site contains various ornamental and garden trees, shrubs, and conifers. A timber summerhouse overlooks one of the carp ponds.

The boundaries are clearly visible and formed of chain-link fence with metal posts. The land benefits from a mains electricity supply (meter required), and a mains water supply is available in the track. The land is suitable for various amenity uses or development for tourism and leisure uses subject to planning permission.
