Additional Info
Historical Designations - At the top of Camp Hill there is a scheduled monument which comprises the remains of an oval shaped Ironage fort surviving as a series of earthworks which can be seen from above and on the ground.
Tourism Potential - One of the aims of the Pentland Hills Regional Park Plan Strategic Framework (2019 to 2028) is to develop the Pentland Hills as a Green Tourism destination and support a diverse range of sporting and recreational businesses (further information is available from the selling agent). The land offered for sale lies entirely within Pentland Hills Regional Park with direct access to around 100km of paths and tracks within the Park. NPF3 provides support for tourism, outdoor sports and recreation in rural areas, subject to obtaining appropriate approvals.
Forestry: There is potential, subject to gaining the relevant permissions and consents, for further commercial and amenity woodland creation. The land lies within the Central Scotland Green Network Outer Core Area which, if planting the land could result in additional grant funding.
Agricultural Environmental Climate Scheme and Basic Payment Scheme - The current owners have been entered into an AECS scheme (Agri Environment Climate Scheme) which comes to an end in December 2022. The scheme encourages waders and wildlife, species rich grasslands, wader grazed grasslands and habitat mosaic management. An incoming purchaser will need to adhere to the management requirements until the expiry date. The entitlements (36 Region 1 and 1 Region 2) are included in the sale price. An incoming purchaser maybe able to claim payments for being in a less favoured area.
Retained Land - The owners wish to retain a strip of land extending to approximately 6 acres at the western end of the land holding to provide access to the Pentland Hills Regional Park. It is proposed that the ownership of the western access road would be retained and that entry to the subjects of sale would be exclusively taken by the purchaser from the eastern access point.
Right of Access - There is a right of access (which is also a Public Right of Way/Core Path) along the track that leads from the A702 to the neighbouring East Side Farm. There is a right of access over the land in favour of several adjoining properties to inspect and maintain the private water supply serving their respective properties.
Water Rights - The existing owners shall retain the exclusive water rights to Saltersyke Spring, being their private water supply which lies within the land close to the north eastern boundary and supplies their property lying to the south of the A702, with a right of servitude for access to upgrade and maintain this supply together with a right to connect into the mains supply, as required. A right of connection to the said private water supply can be obtained by a prospective purchaser by separate negotiation.
Utilities - Scottish Water mains water, Scottish Power mains electricity and Openreach fibre optic communications cables run through the property.
Future Development - The purchaser(s) will be obliged to enter into an agreement with the sellers whereby the purchaser or his/her successors will pay the sellers or their successors, 20% of any uplift in value resulting from development occurring for a period of 20 years, payable upon grant of planning permission.
