About this property

  • Arable Land at Oakerthorpe (205.23 ACRES / 83.05 HECTARES)

    This block of productive farmland comprises a run of well-shaped arable fields lying immediately west of the A38 and east of Millstone Lane. The land is accessed from Millstone Lane and the B6016. A central farm track runs through the land allowing for good access to all fields.

    The land extends to 205.23 acres (83.04 hectares) and is arranged in good field sizes with an effective internal track network running through the land, making it an efficient block for modern arable operations. Within this northern section there are 176.78 acres (71.54 hectares) of arable and 24.14 acres (9.76 hectares) of woodland and scrub which provide shelter and widen the amenity of the land.

    The land is predominantly classified as grade 4 on the agricultural land classification with a small area of grade 3. The land has benefitted from improvement with direct drilling commonly undertaken and plenty of farm yard manure applied to the land.
