Description

Situated towards the end of an upgraded private track, Latimer Wood is in the southwest corner of a wider gated forested area known as Leapingbar Copse, 6 miles northwest of Guildford in semi-rural Surrey.

Located on fertile level loam over sandy soil, the predominantly mature canopy comprises majestic oak, Norway spruce, with occasional Scots pine, sweet chestnut and birch to the south. Tall stems of beech occupy the north with a good quantity of natural regeneration beneath; beech seedings and saplings are shade tolerant, a common species attribute after early establishment.

The shrub layer below includes holly, colourful rhododendron along with younger Norway spruce. During warmer months a delightful scene is created with patches of bluebells, primrose, foxglove, lesser celandine and bracken on the ground layer, welcomed by our vital pollinators. In addition, a number of lovely grassy areas at the southern end would lend themselves perfectly for an occasional summer BBQ.  Woodland visitors include both muntjac and roe deer, badger, rabbit, field mouse, little owl, green woodpecker, buzzard, and a number of harmonious songsters.

Latimer Wood is a peaceful and tranquil haven, ideal for family and friends. It benefits from good vehicular access navigable with a 2WD car.  

There is an Article 4 direction on the wider woodland including Latimer Wood which means that permitted development rights which normally apply for any improvement to, or installation of, gates/fences/walls have been removed and full planning permission should be sought.

If It Were Mine

I would firstly strim the grassy areas and some of the bracken, a mature stem or two would also certainly feed my log burner over winter. Occasional nights under the stars would definitely happen in this peaceful environment. I’m sure a Christmas tree could also be found come the season!  

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