Has it sold?  I am so tempted - it'sjust the weather that puts me off! Although Norfolk hasn't had a great summer.....

It's still available at the moment.

Weather's not that bad down here - it's a lot worse where I moved from - Aberdeenshire

As a matter of interest, would a quarter acre plot be big enough for any smallholder, if there was perhaps the possibility of renting a bit of an adjacent field?

I'm quoting William Cobbett, "Cottage Economy" (first published in 1821 or so, and still in print):

"I purpose to show, that a large part of the food of even a large family may be raised from forty rod, or a quarter of an acre..."

He grows food for a house cow on that, too. But he kind of reckons fruit is a waste of space, and thinks bread and small  beer is a good diet for your kids before  they go out to work in the fields all day. (I think he bought in grain, so wouldn't have been totally self sufficient on that area...)

So sad for you that you are unable to continue with your project.  It looks a lovely set up and someone will be very lucky to get it.  Hope it sells soon.

Price drop again, need to sell this land......

[doganjo]

I've got my plot on there, never had a sniff, just a scam email.  Putting it with an estate agent now.

[scotelf]

Thinking of that too, been too long now, best of luck with yours

[doganjo]

Thanks, you too.  If I had the money, I'd buy it.
