LOCATION

The land is located to the north of the village of Bilbrough with a right of access down a public bridleway off Cat Lane. The land is less than 1 mile off the A64 and is within easy reach of York which is just 5 miles to the north-east and Tadcaster which is 3 miles to the south-west.

DESCRIPTION

The land extends to approximately 8.56 acres (3.46 hectares) of productive arable land and is offered in two equally sized lots, split vertically from the north to the south, currently marked out on site by pegs. This provides the potential for a range of uses including agricultural, amenity or equestrian purposes.

The land comprises Grade 2 agricultural land to the north and Grade 3 to the south, forming part of the Escrick 2 Soil Association, suitable for growing cereals and root crops. The soils comprise clayey loam to silty loam, and the land is generally well drained, with ditches running along the northern and southern boundaries.

ACCESS

The land benefits from a right of way at all times and for all purposes over the track from Cat Lane to the south-east corner of the land. From this point, Lot 1 benefits from a further right of access along the southern boundary of the land.

SERVICES

Mains water and electricity are not connected to the land but are believed to be available for connection in the area.

RIGHTS OF WAY
