Bentham

The land at Fourlands Hill Farm extends to approximately 35.06 acres (14.09 hectares) and comprises a diverse parcel of well-managed agricultural land, situated in an attractive rural setting on the northern side of Bentham Moor Road, between High Bentham and Burton in Lonsdale.

This versatile block of land offers a mixture of productive meadow and pasture, interspersed with steeper banks and areas of native woodland which slope down towards the River Greta. The land has been farmed with care and is in good heart.

The upper portion of the land comprises up to13 acres of valuable meadow ground lying adjacent to the roadside. This area is highly accessible, well suited to agricultural use and enjoys far-reaching views across the valley and towards the prominent tower of Burton in Lonsdale Church enhancing its amenity appeal.

The remainder of the land extends east and north into a mixture of productive pastureland with pockets of woodland and natural scrub. This varied topography offers both agricultural utility and environmental potential, particularly in the lower-lying areas closer to the River Greta, which may be well suited to nature recovery initiatives or future woodland planting schemes.
A portion of the land along the northern boundary, including parts of the riverbank and riverbed, is designated as common land by DEFRA.

The property includes approximately 700m of banking along the River Greta for which the fishing rights are included. The River Greta is know to hold Brown Trout, Sea Trout and occasionally Salmon and Grayling.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-balanced parcel of land with both commercial and environmental value, in a scenic and accessible location.
