An unique opportunity has become available to graziers. Over 2,000 acres of grass keep, which includes open hill, lower fields and two hay meadows, have become available in Powys, through Roger Parry & Partners, for a nominal fee.

2,025 acres will be available from October 2018 near Llangynog in Powys, with 1,848 of those acres being on open hill and the remaining acres made up of lower fields and two hay meadows.

Roger Parry & Partners’ Welshpool office is managing this unique opportunity.

Clare Williams, Chartered Surveyor, said,

“It is very rare for so many acres to become available as grass keep for such a small fee. I am sure this offer will attract many graziers.
