Woodlands For Sale North Wales

Pleasant Wood, Llanferres, Denbighshire, 6.97 acres (approx.) of mid-rotation beech woodland in a secluded rural location, freehold for £39,000 [#343].

A very pretty mid-rotation beech-dominated wood on a broad level shoulder overlooking the Clwydian Range.

Pleasant Wood occupies a commanding position at the western edge of a substantial broadleaved woodland within the Clwydian Range ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’.

The majority of the woodland is composed of beech trees on freely-draining fertile limestone soils. The characteristically clean forest floor associated with this species, coupled with the tall clean beech stems themselves gives the wood an open cathedral-like feeling.  Diversity is maintained by a peppering of other species across the wood including birch, ash, oak, holly and the occasional conifer. Woody shrubs such as hawthorn and hazel are lightly scattered in the under-storey (especially toward the northern boundary).

Aside from the south and west edges, the wood has a gentle southerly aspect affording good access across the site. This will facilitate future management as well as enabling freedom to enjoy the undoubted amenity that this wood affords. The hardwoods contain substantial growing reserves of timber, but they equally offer the prospect of long-term retention for landscape, habitat and recreation.

The site is accessed via a well-found but moderately steep track (DF) on plan which is best negotiated by 4x4. The wood includes a further 4x4 track on its southern edge (FH on plan) which could readily be extended north into the centre of the wood if desired.

From the west
From Ruthin head east on A494 for about 4.5 miles. Ignore the right hand turn to the B5430 but after a further 600m fork next right on the minor county road to Four Crosses.

Go straight over the Four Crosses crossroads and continue a further 0.8 miles. Just after the final house at the end of the tarmac, you will see the track into the wood on your left, marked by a public footpath marker post. You are advised to leave your car back at a lay-by on the tarmac road and walk down this track, through the gate at C on the plan and then follow the track up-hill to the right to the entry gate at F.

From the east
At the start of the A55 take the A 494 west (junction 33b). By-pass Mold and continue a further 3.5 miles to Llanferres. After 0.8 miles fork left to Four Crosses (signed for Llanarmon-yn-Ial). After ¼ mile turn left at the Four Crosses cross roads and continue as above.
