Description

Kinross Wood lies within the southern section of a larger forest known as Birchen Copse, on the fringes of the quiet village of Woodcote, some 8 miles north of Reading.

The woodland stands on loamy clay soils that slope gently to the southwest, and features a large open area towards the northwest boundary. Dominated by tall straight beech, we believe the copse was initially established and managed to service the once prosperous furniture industry in nearby High Wycombe during the late 1800s. The woodland has since naturally diversified beneath the main canopy with a number of species including sweet chestnut, holly and birch.

A variety of archetypal wildlife can frequently be seen and heard in the area. These include both muntjac and roe deer, dormouse, buzzard and tawny owl. A strong mix of fungi for a keen mycologist can also be found towards the end of the year, such as penny bun, magpie inkcap and fly agaric.

Vehicle access is excellent via a hard track that runs just inside the southwest boundary and is suitable for a 2WD car. Onward access into the woodland itself leads from its own parking spot, simplifying management for an aspiring woodsman.

If It Were Mine

Kinross Wood is perfect for recreational purposes. Given the open space, I would most certainly use this area for overnighting in the summer, observing star constellations on clear nights. Some light management could also be carried out yielding some beech wood planks for craft and furniture making.

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