LOT 2: LANDS OF ROSCOBIE (About 233 acres)

Land
Extending to approximately 233 acres, the land included in this lot is summarised as follows:

78 acres permanent pasture
46.5 acres rough grazings
103.5 acres woodland
5 acres miscellaneous.

?Gorilla Hill? is located to the south of Lot 2 and to the west of the access track. When looking at the hill from the side at ground level, it takes on the shape of a gorilla?s face, and, for this reason, it has previously featured on Visit Scotland?s social media.

The hillside forms part of the SSSI known as Roscobie Hills, of note partly due to the landscape supporting some of the best and most extensive examples of plant species and grasses.

Forestry
In 2019, the vendors received a Scottish Government Rural Payments and Inspections Directorate (SGRPID) woodland creation grant to plant approximately 80 acres of land in commercial Sitka spruce. The grant included deer fencing.

The grant runs until 2023 with annual recurring payments equating to approximately ?8,000 being paid for maintaining the woodland.

A copy of the contract with SGRPID under reference 18FGS32481-001 is available from the selling agents on request.

There may be the potential for further afforestation on the land, subject to the necessary consents.

In addition to the new commercial woodland, there is approximately a further 14 acres of coniferous shelterbelt and amenity woodland forming part of Lot 2.

Wind Turbines
Three turbines situated to the south on the hillside generate electricity that is exported to the national grid.

There are a further 14 years left to run on the Feed In Tariff (FiT) contract, which on average provides an income of approximately ?40,000 per annum.

A small purpose built shed located near the bottom of the access track houses three generation meters for each turbine and one export meter.
