LAND
Lying to the west of the house there is a single parcel of relatively level arable land with free draining soils. The parcel extends to approximately 14.1 acres (5.7ha) and has been utilised in recent years to grow arable crops including potatoes. The land benefits from a long stretch of road frontage and a roadside gated access of Curslow Lane.
Lying to the south, there is a single enclosure of relatively level permanent pasture land extending to approximately 1.7 acres (0.69ha). The land benefits from roadside gated access off the unnamed lane fronting the property. The parcel offers a useful piece of grazing land or land to simply enjoy.
