Description

Cobble Wood lies within a private gated forest between the attractive villages of Sprotbrough and Cadeby. The A1(M) and M18 motorways are close by and Doncaster is just 15 minutes to the east, yet thanks to surrounding farmland and other woodland it is peaceful and private.

The wood is almost entirely level and lies near the middle of a well-established and sizeable forest, a short distance west of Sprotbrough. The wider wood is almost entirely surrounded by fields and consequently Cobble Wood is something of a haven.

The stand is a pleasing mix of mature and maturing ash, sycamore and occasional beech above a scattered understorey of regenerating saplings and woody shrubs. The trees generally exhibit good form and would yield some quality lumber, whilst sub-dominant stems and deadwood should keep a hearth amply supplied.

The ground flora hosts a number of flowers including bluebell, honeysuckle, and wood anemone along with woodland associates like dog’s mercury, bramble and fern. The amenity is further enhanced by a number of small pools near the south end of the wood. The wider wood is host to a variety of animals and birds including badgers, owls, woodpeckers, buzzards and roe deer plus a good range of woodland songbirds.

The wood is reached by a recently upgraded car-accessible track fronting two sides of the wood, and (aside from patches of bramble) the woodland floor is generally ‘clean’, giving good internal access too.

Easy access, a variety of management options, some timber output, and a green refuge with abundant wildlife all await the new owner.

If It Were Mine

I’d give the wood a light thin, favouring the best stems. In the future I might consider linking some of the pools to create a bigger pond.

Please remember that some woodland operations require consent.
