The vacant land in Long Eaton has more recently been used for gravel extraction

More than 60 acres of vacant farmland in Long Eaton owned by Nottingham City Council will be auctioned off. Trent Farm, based on Trent Lane in view of the former Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station, has been used in recent years for gravel extraction.

"Moreover, they represent a serious ongoing management risk to the property management team as they are now simply extensive areas of open water. It is not possible to prevent people entering the site and the property management team and our insurance team have recommended the disposal of the liability now that the Cemex lease has expired and we are responsible for the property."

The lease to Cemex expired at the end of 2023 and in a report published on January 8, the city council confirms it will therefore sell plots five and six of Trent Farm. The two plots are the last parts of Trent Farm owned by the city council, with 44 acres of the site having been auctioned off on December 12 by the Nottingham-based Auction Estates company.
