The Estate has a number of enterprises up and running to contribute to the overall farming income. These activity's are run from the Trinley office and make use of the resources currently found on the Estate.

Shoot

To help protect and proliferate the bio diversity on the Estate a shoot is maintained. The benefits of the Finkley Shoot are numerous and some are listed below.

• Good woodland management is an essential part of producing quality game birds. The management of both the canopy and understory benefits all plant and animal life.

• Vermin control - protecting ground nesting birds such as gray partridge, lapwings and skylark.

• Through the use of over wintering cover strips the wild bird population have a good source of food during the winter months.

• Warm, wide, sunny rides created in the middle of the woodland for pheasant shooting are hugely beneficial for a diverse range of plants and animals. With Britain's wildlife under continuous pressure, these valuable woodland habitats which shooting provide, are essential for both fauna and flora.
  

Storage

In June 2006 'Andover Storage' was opened to provide both commercial and residential storage for Andover and surrounding areas. The project was partly funded by a Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs'(Defra's) Rural Enterprise Scheme (RES) grant. This helped convert redundant livestock buildings at Finkley Manor Farm into a modern facility, housing lockable shipping containers. Some of these containers have been modified to provide a greater selection of unit sizes.

The Secretary manages the facility from the Estate office and the project has been a great success, bringing in an extra source of revenue. Visit the 'Andover Storage' web site for more details and pictures.

Cottages

As well as the land and farm buildings, there are 12 residential properties on the Estate managed by the Trinley Estate partnership. A variety of tenants; some private, some ex-employees and some current employees occupy these. The properties bring additional income to the Estate and are being modernized to maximize their full potential.

Water

All the estate's water is provided from boreholes. We have recently installed an upgraded water supply which ensures that all residential properties on the estate as well as a number of others, are supplied with a constant supply of good clean water.

Visitors

The estate has a extensive network of footpaths and bridle ways which enable public assess to large parts of the farmed land. As well as the set footpaths we have converted one to become a bridle way. Over the next year we will hold a number of group educational visits and are participating in Open Farm Sunday. To help us with thess activities, we have joined 'LEAF' (linking environment and farming).

Naomi House

During the summer of 2007 we hosted a summer Masked Ball in aid of Naomi House Children's Hospice. We did this with the help of 'Intense Nightclub'.
