One corner of the main field has been fenced off into a separate paddock and this adjoins the Covered Yard building and its concrete yard. The land will be found to be in good heart and slopes down quite steeply to a stream and woodland. 'NATURE LAND' Running along the whole of one side of the property meanders a very pretty stream that joins the West Lew stream, which flows into the larger River Lew. This is bordered by a superb stretch of nature habitat extending to about 1.3 acres with a diverse habitat ranging from the former quarry, with a pond at its base, which is surrounded by a fine range of native deciduous trees including oak and beech. An open space has been purposefully fenced off for a range of bee hives. Following along the stream are 2 nature ponds surrounded by a nice mix of hawthorn, willow, and holly. This in turn adjoins a strip of mature woodland. A rarely used public footpath crosses one corner of the land. SERVICES Mains water and electricity, plus well water. Private drainage.
