Farm tenancies, succession, land disputes, diversification and rural property.

Questions

Common questions about agricultural

Ask about your situation
What is the difference between an AHA tenancy and a farm business tenancy?

Tenancies granted before 1 September 1995 usually fall under the Agricultural Holdings Act 1986, with lifetime security and, in some cases, succession rights for close relatives. Later tenancies are normally farm business tenancies under the 1995 Act, which are far more limited. Which regime applies affects the value of the holding enormously.

Can my children take over the tenancy?

Under an AHA tenancy, succession on death or retirement may be possible where the applicant meets eligibility and suitability tests, including the livelihood test. It is not automatic and it is fiercely contested in practice. Planning years ahead is the difference between succeeding and not.

We want to diversify into holiday lets or events. What should we check?

Planning permission, the terms of any tenancy or mortgage, rights of way and access, and the tax consequences, particularly for inheritance tax reliefs. Diversification can affect whether land still qualifies for agricultural property relief, which is a significant thing to discover afterwards.

Someone is using a track across our land. Can we stop them?

It depends on whether a right of way exists, by grant or by long use, and whether it has become a public right. Blocking access before establishing the position can create liability. Evidence of how long and how openly the route has been used is central.
