The house is of attractive local stone construction under a pantile roof. The property has been imaginatively renovated and modernised by the vendors over the last 15 years to create a property full of character with much rustic charm and accommodation arranged on two floors including three bedrooms ideal as a family home, holiday cottage or private retreat. The accommodation extends to approximately 2,012 sq ft as shown on the floor plan including a kitchen with tiled floor, hand crafted oak fronted kitchen units, feature open fireplace, fitted electric cooker and gas hob. The living room has an oak floor, beamed ceiling and attractive fireplace with brick surround leading to the impressive lounge, again with oak floor, feature fireplace, full height ceiling to part and mezzanine sitting area or bedroom three. On the first floor there are two good sized double bedrooms and a bathroom with a further shower room downstairs. A utility room and outside WC are attached to the south end of the house. Workshop/Studio There is a detached outbuilding with timber panelled exterior walls under a pantile roof and extended canopy which is ideal for use as a workshop, store or potentially a studio in the garden. Outside The track leads to a grass lawn area to the south of the house with a gravelled terrace area adjoining the house itself. Dry stone walls create an interesting garden with feature areas and there is a large open grass paddock to the north of the house which could be fenced for ponies or other livestock. A timber staircase leads to a terrace area adjacent to the upstairs lounge/bedroom 3 which is a particular feature of the property. Native shrubs and trees lead down to the stream forming the eastern boundary of the property below the house. Woodland The woodland in lots 2 and 3 extends to approximately 85 acres being largely free draining acid soils on the south and west sloping hillside, providing good growing conditions for trees. The woodlands are well stocked with mature and semi-mature, mainly conifer trees, formerly leased to and managed by the Forestry Commission but now back in hand. A significant portion of the woodland was identified for clear felling between 2007 and 2011 by Forest Enterprise which was not felled offering an opportunity for early income generation from the site. The stocking includes Spruce, Larch and Pine together with native broadleaves. Access is gained off High Town Bank Road which splits the site and which is offered for sale in lots, with lot 2 being approximately 61.75 acres to the east of the road and lot 3 the smaller 23.93 acres to the east leading down onto Oldstead Road East.

  • Signposts to Prehistory
    White Horse Hill Geoglyph & hillfort Signposts to Prehistory Location: ‘White Horse’ Hill (SU 301 866) is in Oxfordshire (historically Berkshire), 2.5 km south of the village of Uffington. The hill forms a part of the scarp of the Berkshire Downs and overlooks the Vale of White Horse. Main period: Bronze Age–Iron Age Access & ownership: The site is managed by the National Trust on behalf of English Heritage and is a Scheduled Ancient Monument. Whitehorse Hill is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest. It is signposted from the A420 Swindon to Oxford road, and lies next to the B4507 between Ashbury and Wantage. Parking is available but is subject to a charge for non-members (see National Trust website for details). There is also a small viewing point below the Horse on Dragon Hill road, with parking for six blue badge holders only. Uffington Hill is a site of enduring significance. This complex of prehistoric remains (Fig. 1) is set in the striking natural landscape of the chalk downlands, and includes an Iron Age hillfort (Uffington Castle) and the well-known figure of the White Horse. Other features include a Neolithic long barrow and a Bronze Age round barrow, reused in the Roman and Saxon periods respectively. An enclosure and ring ditch lie to the SW of the hillfort and linear ditches across the landscape are thought to represent Bronze Age land Fig. 1. The White Horse Hill landscape from the air. Google divisions. Earth One of Britain’s oldest known routes, the prehistoric Ridgeway, is deflected around the southern side of the hillfort that was probably deliberately sited to control movement along it.

  • This Walk Description Is from Happyhiker.Co.Uk Walk From
    This walk description is from happyhiker.co.uk Walk From Kilburn Starting point and OS Grid reference Kilburn White Horse free car park (SE 514812) Ordnance Survey map OL 26 – North york Moors – Western Area Distance 11.2 miles (or 9 miles – see text) Traffic light rating or Introduction: This walk from Kilburn (or more correctly from the Kilburn White Horse car park) can also be treated as a walk from Boltby as it is a circular walk. It can also be done from the North York Moors Visitors Centre at the top of Sutton Bank but this is a pay and display car park whereas the White Horse car park is free! It is a walk packed with interesting sights: Gormire Lake – a lovely, spring fed, natural lake surrounded by Garbutt Forest, and the only natural lake in the national Park; Boltby – a very attractive tranquil village with a pretty church; Impressive cliffs of Boltby Scar, Whitestone Cliff and Roulston Scar; North York Moors Visitors’ Centre (toilets here); Fabulous views; Yorkshire Gliding Club - where you are very likely to see gliders landing and taking off; The famous White Horse of Kilburn - created in 1857 by one Thomas Taylor of Kilburn who, having seen similarly created figures in the South, wanted a notable creation for his village. The White Horse is clearly visible for miles, indeed, that is the point, but as you pass close to its top, it is so large and drops away so steeply, you cannot get much of an impression of its shape. What is remarkable is that it has survived so long without the limestone chippings slipping down the hill, a feat which owes its success to a number of strategically placed boards/pegs.
