Lot 2: The North Field (edged green on plan): £70,000 (Seventy Thousand Pounds) Subject to Contract PLANNING PERMISSION Rosemary Cottage (chalet bungalow) was built in 1991 and having been granted Outline Planning Consent under Reference No: H09-1820-88 in February 1989. A copy of the original Outline Consent is available upon request to the Vendors’ Agents. It includes the original General Purpose Building which was erected for the purpose of a livestock building. An Agricultural Habitation Clause under the terms of the Planning Consent, the occupation of the dwelling shall be limited to a person solely or mainly employed or last employed locally in agriculture as defined in Section 290 (1) of the Town & Country Planning Act 1971, or a dependant of such a person residing within, or a widow or widower of such a person. REASON: The reason is in a rural area where it is the policy of the Local Planning Authority not to permit residential development except in the interests of agricultural or related to the use of the land. The circumstances of this case relate to an agricultural need and permission is, therefore, confined to it. There were additional conditions in the original Consent.

UPLIFT PROVISION For the avoidance of doubt, included within the sale of Lot 1, and specifically relating to the Farm Building, there will be an uplift clause provision made by the Vendors that, if Planning Consent is granted to a residential unit/s during a period of 15 years from the date of completion, then the purchaser or their successors in Title will pay the V endors a sum according to 35% of the increase in value above exiting use (as an agricultural building). This uplift payment will not be triggered by a change of use of th e agricultural building to any commercial use and only relates to change of use to residential. Pre-application planning advice has been obtained in connection with a Part Q Application for conversion of the farm buildings to residential use and a copy of the reply from the Local Planning Authority (South Holland District Council) is avail able upon request.

LAND OCCUPATION The land is currently occupied and being used for agricultural purposes.
