Our starting position is that almost everything stays. The farmstead has grown since the 1880s into a patchwork of limestone barns and later structures, and we are choosing to retain, repair and adapt them rather than replace them. Keeping the existing fabric holds both the embodied carbon and the character the farm has gathered over time. Around the buildings, the longer ambition is landscape-scale nature recovery: a reinstated orchard, new hedgerows, ponds and species-rich grassland, alongside a shift to renewable heat and on-site energy. The plan is deliberately phased and need-led, with the farming established first and each building adapted as the enterprise grows into it. The vision is a farming model that is financially, socially and environmentally sustainable: diverse in enterprise, rooted in the character of the landscape, and oriented towards habitat creation and rural employment.
