Description 

The fertile land lies just north of Catstone Hill and was previously part of Mossford Farm. Over the past 10 years the land has been used for growing Christmas trees that produced a variety of species. Following felling of the remaining Christmas trees in April 2025, the land has now been reinstated for agricultural purposes and offers a purchaser a wide range of flexibility for future use.

The agricultural land classification ranges from Grade 3.2 to 4.1, with fertile mineral-based soil at an elevation of between 153 to 244 metres above sea level. Based on these characteristics, the land is well suited for the production of a broad range of crops, given the quality of the land, or could be planted to produce a high-yielding commercial timber crop or broadleaves, with grant funding available.
