Description

Lake Bridge Spinney is a collection of attractive mature deciduous trees, alongside a gently flowing creek, and adjacent to the A4112 that runs from Leominster to Brecon. The woodland has a recently installed fence along the roadside and a new timber gate in front of a stoned parking area.

The trees in this wood are mostly poplar, which stand out being so tall and straight. Dotted throughout, the occasional oak, sycamore and beech have managed to establish and provide a nice variety within the woodland. The soils are deep, fertile, slightly acidic loamy soils, and with the adjacent creek, very rarely dry out. Underneath the canopy of the trees the ground vegetation is predominately ivy, dog’s mercury and nettles in the summer months.

The woodland is surrounded on three sides by fields sown with arable crops or grassland for grazing horses. Rabbits and hares can be found burrowing along the hedgerows, and foxes will follow, searching for food. In the spring and summer months, the creek will be buzzing with water beetles, damselflies, dragonflies and other water invertebrates, and on the warm summer evenings, birds and bats will swoop down to feed on the hovering bugs.

A red kite feeding station to the north of the woodland ensures there are plenty of birds of prey in the area. Buzzards are frequently seen at this time of year in the fields nearby, perched on the ground looking for worms; it is quite a sight to see!

The considerable quantities of mistletoe in this spinney will attract the mistle thrush songbird, so named for its love of the fruit from this plant. Winter visiting birds such as the redwing from Scandinavia and fieldfares from Africa and the Middle East, who to them, the white berries are a welcome resource to keep them fed in the colder months.

As an amenity wood, Lake Bridge Spinney is an attractive proposition for a family to explore and enjoy.

If It Were Mine

From a silvicultural stand point, it might be worth considering felling a few of the large poplars and establishing other broadleaf tree species to improve the habitat and provide for successor trees.

To further my enjoyment of this woodland, I would clear a wider path and create a formal footpath throughout, perhaps to a clearing at the southern end to make a spot for camping.

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