The acreage and or land shown / stated on any map and or screen print for the property is *tbv – (To Be Verified), which means that the land has not been formally measured and or verified by Equus and or its sellers/clients.

Otherwise, an online measuring tool will have been used to ‘check’ the acreage against the Land Registry Title where possible.
