That’s what I was going to say, the land is worth more than the bricks and mortar. That must be one of the things with farming, if someone walked up and offered you £1M for your farm, what would you do ?

Keep it. You can lease it out to other farmers.
A lot of agricultural land round by us is up for sale. Food comes from Supermarkets, haven’t you heard ?
Legit can't buy it, around here. The village board has to basically beg farmers for years for land, to open up housing developments, even though locals are desperate for living space.
A few years ago we were walking alongside a field and there was a flock of odd looking birds. Ooh, what are they I think. Get home, look it up, lapwings. Never seen one before. Or since, it’s houses now.
