Description
Mineral Wood is situated amongst picturesque heathland lying on the lower slopes of the Clwydian Range not far from the town of Wrexham. The woodland sits directly off a quiet unclassified road, set in a dramatic rural landscape surrounded by grazed pastures beyond, with views extending across north Wales, looking towards Mold and Chester.
Nestled behind stone walls (slightly dilapidated in places) and an agricultural fence the boundary hedges carry mature oak, beech, birch and alder trees which add to the character and diversity of this wood.
The gated entrance to the wood sits on drier ground which gives way to a delightful open feel, lightly planted with young pines and broadleaves with an abundance of flora underfoot including heather and bilberry.
As you gently descend the recently resurfaced track you enter the main part of the wood. It was replanted following the harvest of the previous crop around 15 years ago. The majority of this wood is densely stocked Norway spruce, with birch oak and rowan emerging from the old racks. The fringes of the wood are also rich with birch, rowan and alder.
The forest road is supplemented with a turning and parking area which is suitable for a 2WD vehicle at all times of the year. Extending from the parking area is a track leading to a delightful pond fed by a stream that intersects the wood from the grazed pasture beyond the wood. The pond attracts a diverse range of local wildlife and is a great place to sit and listen to the abundance of birds singing in the wood.
There is plenty of scope for the new owner to actively manage the woodland to produce quantities of firewood for the home and further enhance the ecology of this attractive wood.
Mineral Wood offers an excellent opportunity to purchase a mixed wood, situated in a great location that offers a little peace and tranquillity from all the hustle and bustle.
