Lots of bare earth at the moment, plus fruit trees, perennial vegetable and fruit bushes, paths (grass, wood chips, gravel), tarmacked roads, sheds, greenhouses. The land is pretty much flat and very exposed to wind, so tall plants need staking or protecting. Drainage is good. There is no shade.

Growing area is Simple- 95%grassland with 5% wild plants.
The soil is loamy clay topsoil with heavy clay subsoil. Not compacted apart from recent activity.
The potential growing plot is on a gentle slope, facing .... SW? I don’t know how big, we haven’t made it, no shelter. Grazed by mainly sheep for 25 years, before that intensively dairy farmed and regularly fertilised. Bordered by some mature trees including oak. Lovely hedgerows too. Rosehips, sloes, hawthorn, field maple, and more. Grassland plants include yarrow, buttercup, clover. Around edges and by trees there are nettles. In the farmhouse garden there are cultivated roses, other flowers, and shrubs. 17 varieties of apple tree, bullace. There is a pond with indigenous wild plants, boggy areas likewise, and an area covered with bluebells, snowdrops, wild cyclamen, celandine.  We are very lucky.
Recently in the snow we believe we have seen otter footprints, there are tawny owls, and all the usual wildlife as well.
