LOT 1 – EQUESTRIAN YARD WITH ARENA AND PADDOCKS

Approx 13.75 acres (shaded green on sale plan)

Lot 1 is accessed directly from Bouts Lane, leading into a spacious yard area that includes a mobile home and two former broiler sheds, repurposed for equestrian use. The mobile home is currently vacant but has been at the property for in excess of 10 years and is serviced with mains electricity, mains water and private drainage.

To the west of the mobile home are two large buildings previously used as broiler sheds. These have been converted into stabling, featuring internal Monarch stable fronts. One shed is connected to mains water, while the other has an electricity supply. Although the structures themselves are in poor condition and require refurbishment, some of the internal stables are in a usable condition and the property's established equestrian use supports further development.

Beyond the yard lies a 40m x 20m arena with a mixed sand surface. The surrounding land forms a single block, subdivided into smaller paddocks, with water troughs supplied by mains water. Boundaries are defined by mature hedgerows and post and rail fencing, in need of replacement.

The former broiler sheds offer scope for continued equestrian use or present a redevelopment opportunity, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents. The existing buildings comprise of:

• Broiler Shed 1 (Approx. 11m x 77m)

• Broiler Shed 2/Stable Block (Approx. 11m x 58m)

(* all building measurements are approximate)

LOT 2 – PASTURE LAND

Approx 5.62 acres (shaded blue on sale plan)

Lot 2 comprises a single, well-contained parcel of Grade 3 agricultural land, currently laid to permanent pasture. The land is enclosed by mature hedgerows and post-and-rail fencing (which would benefit from replacement), providing natural shelter and privacy.

ACCESS

Access to Lot 1 is directly from Bouts Lane. If sold separately, Lot 2 benefits from its own gated access from Bouts Lane.

PLANNING HISTORY

In 1999, approval was granted for change of use from a poultry farm to a children’s riding school and livery yard. In 2008, enforcement action was taken regarding the stationing of a mobile home on the land. A subsequent planning application was submitted which resulted in permission for the siting of the mobile home in association with the equestrian business.
