Description

Cairnhigh Wood forms the eastern part of a larger woodland a short distance to the southeast of New Pitsligo in rural Aberdeenshire. Fraserburgh is about 20 minutes to the northeast and Aberdeen is an hour’s drive to the south.

The wood occupies level ground and is stocked with three main conifer species, all estimated to be about 40 years old. The larger part is Sitka spruce mixed with elements of lodgepole pine. The eastern fringe is a stand of larch.

The woodland floor is a mix of wood sorrel, fern and moss, with patches of grass beneath the larch. There is a strip of open ground on the south side of the property, bisected by a small watercourse. The wood benefits from wide open views across adjacent fields.

There is a full vehicular right of access to the property but this has not been used for some time and is in need of upgrade.

Cairnhigh combines a generous acreage and significant volumes of timber with a competitive ticket price.

If It Were Mine

The first job would be to re-instate the access, thereby facilitating future management and extraction of woodland produce. In the longer term I would be tempted to push the woodland toward a mixed broadleaf composition.

• PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE INTO THE FIELD. PARK CLEAR OF THE GATES WHERE SAFE TO DO SO.
• Walk down the edge of the field from A for about 200 metres to the gate at B.

Please be aware of cattle or other livestock and do not take dogs.
