DESCRIPTION
Halls are delighted with instructions to offer the Buildwas Leisure Venue for sale by private treaty.
The site encompasses approximately 50 acres of varied terrain ranging from good quality grazing land to woodland and undulating and moonscape type craters to fast open tracks and muddy hill climbs. At present, there is a 4.5 km long track which has a selection of challenging areas as well as gradients of varying levels to test even the most experienced off road driver.
The site hosts vehicle demonstrations, corporate events, team building days in addition to 4 x4 club events and fun days.
The venue is accessed from the A4169 road through a wide security gate and over a double width hardstanding driveway which leads to a large hardstanding car parking area. To one side of the car park are three portacabins housing ladies and gents toilet
facilities together with a portacabin being used as an office/rest room. There is a wash down area with a mains water supply and wash bay enabling participants to clean vehicles before leaving the site.

There is, in our opinion, considerable potential for developing the site further, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission, as there are extensive separate areas ideal for use as a camping site/caravan park as they are extremely private and not overlooked in any way enjoying delightful views towards Wenlock Edge and the Welsh Mountains
beyond. Indeed, it would be a wonderful setting for a Log Cabin Park or for use for musical concerts, retreats etc. The site should be noted by those
involved in extreme sports, whether as a hobby or a
business.
The land extends, in all, to approximately 50 acres or thereabouts, with approximately 27 acres of productive fertile grazing land which, if not required, can be readily let out to local farmers.
The sale of the Buildwas Leisure Venue does, therefore, provide a unique opportunity to purchase a substantial block of land which is already fully adapted for motor sport and 4 x 4 activities of all kinds, yet still with immense potential for expansion of the leisure aspect in a number of different directions.
Halls, the selling agents, strongly recommend an inspection of the land to appreciate the immediate earning potential of the investment and the immense scope for further leisure development.
LOCATION
The Buildwas Leisure Venue is situated in a delightful unspoilt rural setting with spectacular views from the highest point over totally unspoilt countryside towards Wenlock Edge and the Welsh Mountains beyond.
Whilst enjoying this peaceful and private rural setting the land is conveniently located only approx. 4.5 miles from the M54 providing easy access to the West Midlands and Mid Wales with Shrewsbury approx. 12 miles to the west and Birmingham approx. 42 miles to the east
CURRENT PLANNING PERMISSION
Shrewsbury and Atcham Borough Council granted a Certificate of existing lawful development for an existing use to use land for scramble practicing, scramble meetings and four wheel drive events for 28 days each year. The decision was made on
the 4th August 1998 and the reference number is 98/0426/CLE/113/9B. A copy of the planning permission is available from the selling agents, if required.
TENURE AND OCCUPATION
We understand that the land is of freehold tenure and vacant possession will be given on completion of the purchase.

A further parcel of approximately 8 acres of grazing land immediately adjacent to the Buildwas Leisure Venue may be available for purchase, if required.
