Water There is currently one water supply to the property which runs across the barn s meadow to the barn itself and then spurs off to the farmhouse. It is understood, however, that there it is a private pipe from the property to the meter which is approximately half a mile down the road. It runs through the adjacent farmers field and there is currently a leak the pipe is turned off at the meter stop cock . An incoming buyer will therefore wish to either install a new pipe s or, it may be simpler more cost effective to install a bore hole s.

Drainage The farmhouse has a basic septic tank which a buyer will need to replace.
