Land at Hankham off Hankham Street, Hankham

SITUATION
The land lies at the north of the picturesque village of Hankham set in a commanding position with wonderful and uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside. The property has good road access off Hankham Street which links to the main A22 and A27 roads. The market town of Hailsham is some 4 miles to the northwest whilst the coastal town of Eastbourne is some 6 miles to the southeast, both providing a wide range of amenities.

DESCRIPTION
The land lies in a single block enclosed by way of a combination of post and wire fencing and mature hedgerows and extends to about 21.5 acres comprising approximately 18.5 acres of arable land with about 3 acres of mixed deciduous woodland located in a single block on the northern boundary. The property is at its highest point on the eastern boundary whereafter it slopes down to the north and west. Access is off Hankham Street via a galvanised field gate whereafter an access track leads up to a further gate entering into the land itself.

DIRECTIONS
From Hailsham town centre head southwards out of town on the A295. After a quarter of a mile turn left onto the B2104. Follow this road for just over 2 miles before turning left onto Glynleigh Road signed for Hankham. Continue on Glynleigh Road for just over a mile and upon reaching a ‘T’ junction turn right onto Hankham Street. After about a quarter of a mile a property named Horns Cross Farm will be seen on the right hand side. After passing this property, the entrance to the land will be seen immediately afterwards on the right. A steel field gate sits at the entrance to the property with the access track climbing gently up to the land itself.

Alternatively, approaching on the A27 from the Pevensey area, proceed westwards on the A27 for about 3 miles and at the roundabout take the first exit onto Golden Jubilee Way/A22 heading to Eastbourne/Polegate. At the next roundabout take the first exit onto Ditton’s Road /B2247 direction Stone Cross. Pass over one roundabout and after just under a mile, turn left at the traffic lights onto the B2104/Hailsham Road. Almost immediately, turn right onto Hankham Road signed for Hankham. Continue through the village for about a mile whereafter the entrance to the property will be seen on the left hand side.
