Farmland
Lot 2 of the Ewelme Park Estate includes productive rolling arable farmland with some pasture. The Arable land which extends to approximately 487 acres comprises mainly Grade 3 farmland with two distinct soil types. The western portion of the estate is predominately steep ground and is made up of shallow lime-rich soils over chalk or limestone. To the east the land is flatter and comprises slightly acid loamy and clayey soils. The arable land is farmed in hand. Full cropping details can be provided if needed.
Woodland
The woodland extends to approximately 168 acres and is strategically located to benefit the Estate’s private shoot. The woodlands are primarily deciduous with distinct groups; mixed broadleaves and conifers; broadleaves and conifer. Less than 8% of the woodland is classified as ancient woodland and a significant area was planted on farmland throughout the 1980’s and 1990’s. The woodlands generally have level to moderate slopes but are located in undulating topography which allows for harvesting and extraction to be carried out by conventional means.
Shoot & Conservation
The shoot has been run since the current owner purchased the Estate in 1960 and utilises the woodland and strategically planted cover crops to provide challenging pheasants and partridges. Feeder pens are located within the woodland.
Farm Buildings
Located to the north of the entrance to the main driveway are two steel framed grain stores built in the 1990s. They are surrounded by a concrete forecourt and are accessed
through double five bar gates. The buildings house storage up to 800 and 500 tons respectively and there is a dry air generator within the larger of the two buildings.
If the estate is sold in Lots, please note that Lot 2 and 3 will not be sold before Lot 1 is.
