Thanks for the replies.
Access – it is off the main road which is good for the trailer. But have asked the agent to get back to me about the availability of one of the access routes as it would be through the sellers car park (currently the main access) and it would make getting the barn materials on site much easier than driving up from the other entrance.
Use – pretty sure it’s just agricultural at the moment. It did have cows on it. It had any possibility of planning foe residential i am pretty sure they would have got outline and the price would be 5-10x what it currently is.
There is a water trough fed from an underground mains supply. Need to find out how it’s billed. I would normally just get an IBC on site for water but good to know there is a supply.
there is 2 power line poles on the field so need to find out if this has been paid for as a one off single payment or if there is ongoing rental from the power company.
Have walked the fences – they are okay for cows (2 strands of barbed) but I would be replacing them with proper stock fence suitable for sheep. Total perimeter is about 460m but there is some (good condition) wall for some of it. Need to find out who owns said wall but it’s part of a pub and some of it is the pub wall so i would expect it’s all the pubs. Fencing is not a problem.
I was hoping to speak to the owner but it’s up for auction in a couple of weeks so time is of the essence now.
SPS?
