Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
- Semi-improved pasture
- Potential for Biodiversity Net Gain
- Diverse habitat
- Adjacent to the River Arun
Our Rural Surveyors are pleased to be marketing this special block of land at Wick, near Littlehampton. Extending to some 147.15 acres (59.55 hectares) the block is uniquely situated between the River Arun and a railway, which has helped to create a peaceful and unspoilt habitat.
The northern and western most fields have previously been used for cereals, but have since been put down to pasture. The whole block has either been cut regularly, or extensively grazed. The watercourses and ditches throughout the land are mostly untouched and offer a rare and special habitat close to the coast, with panoramic views to the South Downs.
Unusually, the land has no public rights of access . It hosts a diverse range of rare birds with curlew, cattle egrits and black-tailed godwits observed in the last 12-months. To the north is a pond extending to some 0.9 acres. There is an extensive riverbank with some 2.5km of frontage into the River Arun. Access is obtained from the south, directly from the A259 dual carriageway.
The land has enormous character and would be suitable for seasonal grazing or grassland production. The diversity of habitat along the watercourses and fringes offers an opportunity to revert the farmland into dedicated conservation areas, with potential for BNG, nature reserves or similar uses.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
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
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
