Why buy a farm or farmland in Leicestershire
Leicestershire farms a mix: 40% grass and 34% cereals across 1,832 commercial holdings, with about 92,100 cattle and 221,000 sheep. Both grazing and cropping are established here, so most kinds of holding have a market around them.
Leicestershire has no National Park or National Landscape, so standard planning rules apply across the county and permitted development for agricultural buildings is at its fullest.
Planning is decided by 8 councils in Leicestershire, so rules on agricultural occupancy conditions and barn conversions vary by district. Our guides cover what to check before you offer.
