fArm buildings

New Sheepfold Farm benefits from a well-equipped

farm steading with a versatile range of modern general

purpose buildings.

The farm was home to the well regarded Bickleygate

Holstein herd which comprised approximately 200 milking

cows plus followers before being dispersed in 2017. The

farm now currently operates a dairy heifer rearing enterprise

which is complemented by a beef suckler herd and sheep

flock. The conventional 16:16 herringbone parlour is still

in-situ and benefits from semi-automatic ID and electric

feeding systems. The farm buildings remain geared up

to support a Dairy enterprise but are equally suited to

supporting other livestock rearing enterprises and taking

advantage of the excellent range of accommodation offered.

The farm buildings provide approximately 223 cubicles

including 36 heifer cubicles with further livestock

accommodation for calves and young stock and covered

silage clamps with capacity for circa 2,000 tonnes.

The property benefits from a Froling 75 kW Woodchip

Biomass boiler which serves the wider farmstead and is

registered for the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) generating

on average an annual payment in the region of £8,000 -

£10,000 per year.
