Description

ADVANCE NOTICE: AUCTION DATE MAY BE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

The land comprises former agricultural land that is approximately 112 acres and 45.32 hectares acres. On the site there is long rectangular terrace complex of 3 cow sheds, which have steel portal frames and profile cladding elevations and roofs. Two of the sheds face each other across a central yard area and the third is open to the field to the south. Note the areas shaded red on the indicative aerial view are excluded from the title to be sold.

At the south of the site are several storage units; a terrace of three units, with two units either side of an open central unit, a storage unit with three roller shutter entrances, a storage unit, open on one side, the main storage unit which houses several Biomass boilers, plus an office and staff area and also having three roller shutters and further storage unit with two sliding entrance doors. All units are of portal stell frame construction with profile cladding.

Please Note:

1) It formers part a wider site that has been identified within the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review 2021 - 2041 as having future development potential:

"Throckmorton Airfield (the former RAF Pershore site) and the surrounding areas present the opportunity for a sustainable new settlement incorporating residential and employment uses with supporting physical and community infrastructure. Subject to further work and evidence, Throckmorton could provide a longer-term solution to meeting future housing and employment needs. An approximate Area of Search covering a large area is shown on the Key Diagram (Figure 1) centred on Throckmorton Airfield. Landowners within the Area of Search will be encouraged to engage with the Council in the progression of the proposals for the site prior to the review of the Plan. A future review of the Plan would decide whether a new settlement is deliverable and if it would be a feasible and viable option and, if so, determine a precise location, scale and quantum of land uses required, and any supporting infrastructure."

Interested parties should rely on their own enquiries.

2) The registered owner was convicted of operating an illegal waste site and parts of the whole site are known to have issues of contamination. The Receiver has not commissioned their own survey, but the Environment Agency had previously surveyed the site and initially the owner was prosecuted for six offences where waste totalling around 25,000 cubic metres was either dumped, buried or burned at the site. We understand that the Environment Agency have been monitoring the volume of material on the site and a LIDAR from 2023 suggests a 199,556 cubic meter change in site levels since 2005, equating to a tonnage of 145,378. Subsequent surveys (carried out for third parties, so cannot be disclosed in full) estimate that there is between 216,000 to 267,000 cubic metes on site, including stockpiles of circa 95,000 cubic meters. The waste is understood to be a mixture of screened soli/made ground, mixed shredded waste, shredded wood and mixed construction and demolition waste.

However, the seller cannot confirm and interested parties must rely on their own enquiries and site investigations and a purchaser acknowledges they are responsible for any future clearance, remediation, or other statutory requirements in relation to the site, with their liability commencing on completion of any sale and it is likely the Environment Agency would seek early engagement with the new owners to discuss this.

4) The Land is subject to an overage clause (50% uplift) that runs to 2061 - please refer to the Legal Pack.
