The Farmland
The arable land at East Heckington is a ring fenced block of commercial Grade 1 arable land.
The land can be accessed from the A17 directly, and from the farm track which is shown as dashed brown line on the Sale Plan. The Land benefits from a number of internal farm tracks.
The soil belongs to the Wallasea 2 soil association which is described as a deep stoneless clayey soil with some deep calcareous silty soils. This soil group is described as being suitable for field vegetables, potatoes, sugar beet and cereal crops.
The land is level and divided into 5 enclosures, separated by dykes and internal drainage board ditches.
Cropping Schedule
Within the past 15 years the land has been used for a number of high value crops in addition to those listed in the schedule including asparagus, spinach, potatoes and sugar beet. A full cropping history back to 2010 is available from the vendor’s agent.

Overage
The land is sold subject to an overage on future non-agricultural development. The overage will not apply to any planning permissions granted or development or use in connection with agriculture, equestrian and forestry activities. If development takes place under the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 or any subsequent act or change to the regulations then this will be a trigger event for overage.
