The property is offered for sale freehold with vacant possession which will be given on completion. Sporting and Mineral Rights The sporting and mineral rights are included with the property for sale in so far as they are owned by the Vendors. The fishing rights are excluded from the property for sale. Burdens The property is sold subject to all rights including rights of way, whether public or private, rights of light, support, drainage, water and electricity supplies and other rights, obligations and easements, quasi easements and restrictive covenants and all existing and proposed wayleaves for masts, pylons, stays, cables, drains and water, gas and other pipes, whether or not constituted in the title deeds or referred to in these particulars.

The area of Ghyll woodland within Lot 2 (as per the sale plan) is designated as Ancient and Semi-Natural Woodland. A public footpath crosses both Lots 1 and 2. The southern area of Lot 3 lies within Flood Zone Two and Three of the River Irthing. The Vendors have entered the land into a Countryside Stewardship Scheme (CSS) Reference: 11CSS011595, which terminates in October 2012. The area of land fenced off from the river on the boundary of Lot 3, and forming part of the CSS is being retained by the Vendors. The CSS encompasses hedge restoration, field margins, boundary maintenance and grassland management options. Further details of the CSS options can be obtained from the Sole Selling Agents. Currently Lots 2 and 3 are watered from a shared mains water supply, which crosses the track between points A and B, as per the sale plan. If Lots 2 and 3 are sold to the same Purchaser then that Purchaser will be required to install a separate water meter on the boundary of Lot 3 alongside the access track. If Lots 2 and 3 are sold separately then the Purchasers will be required to install separate water meters (at the location given above) and the Purchaser of Lot 3 will be required to install a separate water trough. On completion, if required, a right of access will be granted to the land from the farm road. The right of access will be from points X to A for Lot 2, X to B for Lot 3 and X to C for Lot 1, as shown on the sale plan, and maintenance of the farm road and tracks between these points will be on a shared basis.
