Description

Reeves Wood is an attractive beech and larch wood planted 34 years ago and is now at mid rotation. The trees were planted on this Ancient Woodland site following the harvesting of the previous cover. The trees are vast in number, estimated at 800 per acre and would welcome a light thinning to encourage the development of the remainder.

Reeves is a private little woodland with access tracks on both sides. As you walk into the woodland you first come to an area of young (circa 20 years) beech with a few mature standards, the odd birch and mountain ash. These trees are growing well and form an attractive variation to the larch trees growing behind. Under the broadleaves and amongst the larch in places, is a carpet of bluebells in the spring.

The larch are now mid-way through their planned rotation and would benefit from a degree of thinning. This should produce a good supply of firewood for a wood burning stove. The larch are growing on relatively flat land which slightly slopes away to the south west corner.

A hard surfaced forest track connects Reeves Wood to Farley Lane through a locked gate way. The woodland is in excellent condition, standing on fertile well-draining soil and benefitting from a good average rainfall.

An overage clause on this property provides for 25% of the increase in the value of the land upon the granting of planning permission to be paid to a previous owner up until April 2020. After this the overage clause lapses.

If It Were Mine

Future management by a new owner could be to maintain the commercial conifers to produce timber or gradually convert the woodland to a more mixed range of species by thinning and replanting in the more open areas.

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