The Land
The farmland extends to approximately 60.92 Ha (150.53 Acres) in total including roads, yards and buildings and is situated in a contiguous block and lies adjacent to the northeast settlement boundary of the village of Glenboig. The land comprises a productive area of arable and grassland which has been utilised for grazing of livestock and for hay and forage production. The land has been predominately classified as Grade 3.2 with a small area of Grade 5.3 by the James Hutton Institute. The land can be worked to a good depth and a continuous programme of drainage and reseeding, has ensured that the land is farmed to its maximum potential. The fields are all well laid out and are of a generous size and can easily accommodate modern machinery and benefit from stockproof fencing with the majority of the enclosures having access to mains fed water troughs. The land varies in aspect rising from 89m adjacent to the Gain Burn on the northern boundary of the farm to 115m above sea level at its highest point adjacent to the telecom masts on the western periphery of the farm. The enclosures have benefited from a healthy application of farmyard manure over the years due to their proximity to the farm steading with the majority of the enclosures being accessed directly from the farm steading or via field gates which lead directly off Glenboig Farm Road. There are several and very small areas of amenity woodland which are predominantly located along field margins and adjacent to the farm road which provide shelter and amenity.
