Herdlow Pasture, Staffordshire - About 5 ½ acres, £55,000
Nestling in a peaceful valley between Leek and Meerbrook, Herdlow Pasture is set on a gentle south-facing slope. It is surrounded by undulating countryside, which is partly open and partly wooded, and it has a fast flowing stream babbling at the bottom of the slope. To either side of the stream the land has a mix of plant life including sheep sorrel and meadow sweet. The areas adjacent to the stream may also be suitable for the construction of some small wildlife ponds. The lower section of the site to the south of the stream has a feeling of privacy and seclusion and would be a great place to observe the wildlife which abounds on Herdlow Pasture and the surrounds. Sit quietly for a while and you may be lucky enough to see a red deer, a passing hare or a buzzard.
Access is provided via a level track which leads from the gate and along the northern boundary. Herdlow Pasture would be suitable as grazing land for equestrian use or for other livestock; it could also be an interesting conservation project and could be used for tree planting and to further enhance the species diversity of the area.
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.
