Description
Whattall Farm sits in the gently undulating North Shropshire countryside, a short distance south of the market town of Ellesmere, an area with a strong farming tradition. Offered for a sale after a significant period of private ownership, the farm is available with vacant possession from 29th September 2026, and subject to the tenancies and licenses described herein.
Currently operated as a mixed holding, at the heart of which has been a well-regarded Holstein herd, the farm provides a combination of lighter arable ground alongside good forage and grazing land which could lend itself to a range of enterprises.
Location
Situated just off the main A528 linking Ellesmere to Shrewsbury, the country around Whattall Farm is characterised by productive farmland, traditional villages, and a strong agricultural heritage. Gently rolling fields surround "Shropshire’s Lake District", the locally noted meres being the most obvious evidence that remains of the effect the last ice age had on the area.
The nearby market towns provide ample commercial, family and leisure amenities. Shrewsbury, as the nearest major town, provides a full range of leisure and service amenities, including the nearest livestock market and a range of machinery dealerships, alongside a noted range of independent shops and restaurants. Ellesmere offers lakeside walks, local stores, and a close knit community hub typical of country market towns.
For schools, the area is well served by Ellesmere College, Lakeland Academy, Packwood Haugh, Oswestry School and Moreton Hall – as well as a range of quality institutions near Shrewsbury and Chester.
The area remains well connected, via the road network to the M54 at Shrewsbury (for Birmingham and the south) and the A49 at Whitchurch, connecting Ellesmere to the north (Chester, Crewe, Liverpool and Manchester) as well as to the Welsh Marches and South Wales.
International airports are at Manchester (approximately 54 miles) and Birmingham (approximately 69 miles). Shrewsbury station provides national and regional rail connections, with Stafford station (40 miles) providing direct mainline services to London (from 77 minutes).
