Plympton

Situation

The land is conveniently located directly adjoining the southern side of Plympton and to the north of Hardwick Wood being in an elevated position with far reaching views over Plympton and beyond.

The A38 Devon Expressway lies just to the south-west with the Plympton town centre within half a mile and Plymouth city centre within less than 3 miles to the west.

The Land

The land is gently north facing to the west, but more steeper and north facing to the east and extends in total to approximately 16.75 acres (6.78 hectares).

The land is interspersed by general shrub and general growth from all boundaries particularly to the south underneath the adjoining Hardwick Wood. The land is bordered by hedgerow with supplementary fencing to parts to the north and west and by Hardwick Wood to the south and east with supplementary three strand barbed wire fencing in places. A section of the northern boundary is directly adjoining a section of green open space within the adjoining housing development which is currently open and unfenced. There is evidence that there has been public access to sections of the land.

Access

The land benefits from access from an 11'0 metal gateway directly off Merafield Road to the west which then leads to a rough unstoned track leading to an overgrown grass area which in turn leads to a secondary approx. 10'0 opening which leads onto the land to the south-west corner. The Land Registry entry for the land makes mention of a right of way at all times with or without machinery and it is believed that the right has not been extinguished. There is a secondary access to the north-west corner of the land at the Merafield Farm Buildings via a 12'0 metal gate. There are other apparent current access points to the north of the land although it is not known whether these are to the benefit of the land or not.

Services

The land does not currently benefit from mains water or electric, although there are understood to be supplies nearby which connections may be possible to be made subject to necessary consents and payments.

Subsidy and Stewardship Schemes

The land is not understood to be entered into a subsidy or stewardship scheme.
