BRINKLEY STUD Dullingham, Newmarket Newmarket 4 miles, Cambridge 13 miles, M11 (junction 9) 14 miles, Stansted Airport 32 miles A 133 acre stud farm near Newmarket with potential for redevelopment Manager s House, 3 cottages, stable flat. Stud farm and agricultural buildings with 41 boxes and barns. 100 acres of railed paddocks, lake and woodland. In all about 133 acres. For sale as a whole or in three lots INTRODUCTION Brinkley Stud is a well known stud farm 4 miles south of Newmarket and close to the pretty villages of Dullingham and Burrough Green. Newmarket is Britain s largest racehorse training centre with two racecourses, and the home not only to the Jockey Club, but also Tattersalls, Europe s pre-eminent bloodstock sales company; the finest veterinary facilities; and some of the most prestigious stallions in the world, all of which generate a significant demand for boarding thoroughbreds. The four houses need either redecorating or complete refurbishment, so there is a real opportunity to demolish and relocate some of them to a new site overlooking the lake in the middle of the stud. Planning approval would need to be obtained for a project of this nature. With woodland belts and some hedges planted about 25 years ago this stud farm has plenty of shelter around its well laid out and easily accessible paddocks. Wide rides and plenty of space make Brinkley Stud especially attractive. Converted into a stud farm by the present owners 20 years ago, Brinkley Stud has been used as the UK base for an Italian racing operation. The breeding stock have been kept at Brinkley and once of racing age the young stock are sent to Italy. The property is well fenced with Keepsafe fencing, and shelterbelts have been planted, to give an excellent range of well sheltered paddocks. The stud buildings are a combination of a stud complex of 27 boxes in barns and 14 boxes in converted farm buildings.
