Description

Prime Wood is a beautiful mature broadleaf woodland with a few conifers set within a large ancient forest. It is a splendid example of a managed Chiltern beech woodland, which also contains scattered birch, oak and hornbeam. Around 40 years ago, the surrounding woodland was in part replanted with small groups of conifer. Now mature, these tall trees (notably larch, spruce and fir) add a great diversity to the area which is credited by the rich variety of bird species observed. I’m certain there is a Goshawk in the vicinity!

Walking through this quiet woodland, the silence is disturbed only by the rustle of leaves underfoot and the call of birds. Prime Wood is abundant in flora and fauna with a rich display of grasses, fungi and ferns underfoot. You are likely to come across roe and muntjac deer and the tell-tale signs of the fox and badger are evident.

The woodland can easily be accessed by two wheeled drive vehicles from the council road via a hard surfaced track and benefits from useful turning and parking areas.

Prime Wood is the perfect choice for those looking to own a beautiful amenity woodland with the potential to produce good quantities of firewood for the family home or even some timber through active management.

If It Were Mine

I would a clear a discreet path to a location suitable for a den or camp and find a tree suitable for a rope swing. Tree wise, I’d identify any trees with poor health and consider felling them, followed by planting a few saplings with suitable guards.

Please remember some management operations require approval and/or a licence.
