The land comprises three sections, made up of about half broadleaf forestry and half green land. 

The farmland is described as being of very good quality and excellent for grazing. While the forestry is broad leaf, planted between 2000 and 2005, it has some Ash Dieback. 

This would qualify for the reinstatement scheme, and the forest at this property would be a suitable applicant for the Woodland Improvement Scheme, according to the sellers.
