Full Description: * BY INFORMAL TENDER. DEADLINE 12 NOON, 7 MAY, 2026 *<br />An exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial and well positioned block of meadow, pasture and mature woodland, extending to approximately 61.02 acres (24.7 hectares) or thereabouts, all positioned within a single ringfenced parcel.The land is classified as Grade 4 under the Agricultural Land Classification Maps consisting of loam soils suited to quality grassland production. The land comprises approximately 42.3 acres of productive good quality meadow and pastureland alongside approximately 17.74 acres of mature deciduous woodland.<br />The land is divided into 3 separate field enclosures via stock net fencing. The land lies between the contour lines of 90-110m above sea level, being predominantly level by nature. The field parcels include some small areas of in field trees. The mature woodland wraps around the west and south western boundary of the holding and partly runs directly adjacent to Burnley Road (A671). The land benefits from road frontage and a gated access point directly onto the A671 (Whalley Road). The land also benefits from a right of access over the tarmac access road leading off the A671, as shown marked Blue on the site plan. <br />The land is located to the south east of Whalley village and west of Read village. Parcels of this size and quality in such a prominent and accessible location are seldom brought to the open market. This is a rare chance to acquire a significant block of land in a highly desirable part of the Ribble Valley. This property will be of strong interest to a range of perspective purchasers including those from agricultural, equestrian, amenity, environmental and lifestyle sectors. <br />The land has previously benefited from planning consent under Ref: 3/2012/0578. The planning allowed for the development for an outdoor adventure centre including treetop aerial adventure course, segway course, trails to include barefoot trails, children adventure trails and education/interpretation trails, and the erection of building facilities to provide for welfare facilities, restaurant and café, covered seating and ancillary retail sales. The planning also allowed for the construction of an access onto the A671 and parking for 50 cars (8 disabled spaces), (5 coaches), together with cycle and motorcycle parking and associated roads and landscaping. <br />For further details on location and boundaries, please refer to the site plan where the land is outlined in red.<br /><br />PLEASE REFER TO THE SALES BROCHURE AND GENERAL REMARKS FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
