Description

Part of a wider forest area, Bucklebury Wood lies on the southern edge of Woodcote village in Oxfordshire, 10 miles from Henley-on-Thames.

Standing on rich loamy clay soils, the flat site is dominated by a grand high canopy of mature beech with a lush shrub layer of bushy holly beneath. The evergreen holly makes a picturesque contrast against the beech during the winter and can be enjoyed via a network of natural trails intertwining through the wood.

During spring and summer, the wood comes alive with a bright green canopy, with rays of sunlight illuminating clusters of bluebell on the forest floor. Signs of strong natural beech regeneration are also present, a common occurrence after initial establishment, as seedlings and saplings are shade tolerant. Pleasant rural views of equestrian land and farmland lie beyond the northeast boundary.

Fauna known to the area include roe and muntjac deer, green woodpecker, owl and an array of songbirds. Bucklebury Wood benefits from good access and is reached via a hard track navigable with a 2WD vehicle.


If It Were Mine

This woodland is perfect for recreation, building dens and camping with the family with a fire, perhaps enjoying a little bush craft. A keen woodsman could also yield some beech firewood.

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