Premises Details:

Orston Shooting Ground was purchased by the current owners in 2016. They invested significantly in the first few years of ownership to upgrade the site facilities and equipment to a high standard.

Today the business prides itself on being one of the UK’s most reputable shooting grounds, providing a friendly, professional and safe environment for all clay shooting requirements. The brand that has been created attracts world class top coaches, shots and events.

The shooting ground owners are proud of the high standard of process and protocols for health and safety, fire safety and operating policies which can readily be adopted by a buyer.

On a week to week basis approximately 200 visitors attend the site, increasing to circa 1,000 people during large scale national events.

Shooting grounds are rare assets due to the difficulties of getting planning permission to build new sites arising partly because of the noise generated by the activity.

Orston Shooting Ground is particularly unique in offering both large scale/multi discipline clay shooting facilities as well as a large rifle range. Most major competition that offer both these services are located at least 50 miles away, enabling Orston to appeal to a large catchment area.

Planning Consent:

Permission 21/01883/FUL permits development of a full bore rifle range. The permission allows for 300m, 200m and 100m ranges with a total of 24 lanes, which will include a steel framed building that covers all firing points.
