An excellent opportunity to purchase 5.72 acres (2.315 ha) of attractive grassland, with a brook course within a tree lined valley running along its length

Description - A 5.72 acres (2.315 hectares) of amenity land with far reaching views in the attractive area of Longdon. With a brook course running off Cannock Chase, this property boasts a diverse landscape, including open grazing land, a wooded valley and sweeping views.

General Information - The land comprises two grazing fields either side of the brook which runs all year round and is spring fed. This runs approximately along its length, with the outer perimeter being well fenced with either mature hedging or recently upgraded post and wire fencing.

After approx. 0.7 miles, take the 2nd left turn into Dark Lane, where there is a small triangle of grass at the junction. The land is situated at the end of Dark Lane on the right, just before the bollards, opposite Dark Lane Farmhouse.
There is a second gateway into the land onto Dark Lane, a short distance beyond the bollards at the southern end of Dark Lane.

Location - The land is situated just before the point where bollards block further use of Dark Lane, so there is very limited passing traffic along Dark Lane. The land occupies an elevated position at its western end, with far reaching views over the surrounding countryside and the Trent Valley area. The location offers nearby country walks, such as an 8 min walk to the George’s Hayes nature reserve, offering one of Staffordshire's best ancient woodland sites, beyond which is Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Land is also close to good road network links, being a short drive from the A51, A515, A38 and M6 Toll road. Lichfield has two train stations (6 miles) which provides a regular service to London Euston and Crewe. The Cathedral City of Lichfield is only 5 miles distant.

Services - There are no mains services. The watercourse provides a fresh water supply directly from Cannock Chase.

Tenure And Possession - The land is sold freehold with vacant possession.

Sporting, Mineral And Timber Rights - The sporting rights and the mineral rights are assumed to be included with the sale, however this should be verified by the purchaser’s legal advisors. Timber rights are included within the sale as far as they exist on the property.

Viewing - By Appointment only. Please contact our Ashbourne office to book a viewing on .

Rights Of Way, Wayleaves And Easements - The gateway onto Dark Lane, in the north eastern corner of the land, is shared with the adjoining field. A right of way will be granted to the purchaser to access the field gateway, over the short distance to Dark Lane. Whilst we are not aware of any public rights of way, the property is sold subject to, and with the benefit of, all rights of way, wayleaves and easements whether or not they are described in these particulars.
