Set in just under 50 acres, Down Dinner Hill Farm has been in the same ownership for many years as a small dairy herd with arable and grass cropping for feed. The 4 bedroom traditional farmhouse will date from the early 19th Century and has been upgraded to provide comfortable family accommodation.

THE FARM LAND
LOT 1: The farmland with lot 1 extends to approximately 17 acres subdivided into 4 fields which lie to the north of the farmstead. The land is all level or gently sloping and is accessed directly from either the farm road, or the farmyard itself. It is all down to either permanent pasture, with some fields having grown spring corn in recent times. All boundary hedges and fences are in reasonable stock proof condition, but do need attention in places. It is understood that there is a spring fed water trough to the grass field.
LOT 2: (NOW SOLD) Comprises a ring-fenced parcel extending to approximately 31 acres. The land is all fairly level or gently undulating, being south facing. It is all down to a mixture of permanent pasture and arable land which has grown corn in recent years. The field boundaries and internal divisions are a mix of post and wire fences and hedges, which need attention in places. The land is bounded on the north by the Council maintained lane leading from Boulby to Skinningrove, but access can also be taken directly from Micklow Lane.
The farm's policy has been to grow the majority of the arable land with a spring barley crop which has averagely yielded 2.½ - 3 tons per acre.
