The land is being marketed via tender on a six-year lease and council chiefs are anticipating a high level of interest.

Councillor Christopher Akers-Belcher, chair of the council’s Finance and Policy Committee, said: “This is excellent farming land in a good location with easy access to the A19.”

Tenders close at noon on Wednesday, March 1. For further information contact 01429 523228 or email: [email protected]
