Description

Part of a wider gated replanted Ancient Woodland, Little Oak Wood is located under a mile south of the attractive town of Royal Tunbridge Wells.

Situated on mostly level fertile loamy clay soils, the mature canopy predominately comprises Scots pine (one of Britain’s most common conifer species which can also produce excellent veneer) with occasional oak, sycamore, birch and sweet chestnut. Below, the shrub layer comprises a number of promising regenerating oak and birch that could make useful firewood. A lovely purple leafed cherry plum tree also occupies the northern boundary. The ground layer is carpeted with patches of Himalayan balsam, foxglove, fern and fruitful blackberry.

A number of useful open areas within would make good spots for an overnight or two during summer. In addition to a handy foot path running thought the middle of the copse from north to south, the current owner has created a suitable hard surface area to park a car along the northern boundary.

A variety of wildlife frequents this peaceful location, including deer (fallow and roe), common dormouse, fox, badger, owl, hawk, buzzard and many harmonious songbirds.

Little Oak Wood benefits from good access along a hard surfaced track navigable with a 2WD car and offers many recreational and woodland possibilities for a weekend woods person.

If It Were Mine

I would think about selecting one of the Scots pine to use as fuel for my burner at home during the winter. Hanging a hammock between two trees and watching woodland life wander past would be blissful during summer. Story telling round a fire one evening, I certainly hope so!  

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