The enclosure has direct vehicular access onto Main Street as well as from Crossing Farmyard via the main bridge. If Lots 1 & 2 are purchased separately, the purchaser(s) of Lot 2 will be granted a temporary right of access over the main bridge and through the farmyard of Lot 1 for a 12 month period only in order to allow sufficient time for an alternative access to Lot 2 to be constructed.

If not purchased with Lot 1, a new access could be installed directly from Main Street subject to consent from Lindsey Marsh Drainage Board.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
