Shire Meadow is situated between the villages of Yoxford and Blythburgh.
The Meadow is conveniently located near to the A12, nestled between two young plantations. The access track is wide and level and is suitable for equestrian or agricultural vehicles.
The Meadow provides a secure, level pastureland ideal for grazing horses, camping, or amenity use. To the south and north of the meadow large areas have been laid down as native broadleaf plantations. Over time this will mean that the pasture will be enclosed on two sides by woodland. This will give the pasture a degree of privacy and protection from the elements. In effect the area will become a tranquil glade.
The pasture has been seeded with quality grass seed mixture ideal for grazing. The meadow could be enhanced further by planting additional hedges along the other boundaries. It would be possible to turn this meadow into a wild flower meadow with careful management again enhancing its amenity use.
Pretty views of the surrounding Suffolk countryside can be enjoyed along with wild flowers in the hedgerows attracting many butterflies and wildlife. This meadow is part of a bigger area that has currently undergone a large amount of work to improve it. This has included establishing three plantations of native broad leaf trees and shrubs, reseeding the meadow, installing proper boundary fencing and gates.
The purchasers of the meadow will be asked to enter into a covenant to ensure the quiet and peaceful enjoyment of adjoining woodlands and meadows.
