Description

Located along a private track and forming part of a wider gated forested area near to the West Sussex border, Thorpe Wood is a delightful copse conveniently situated 11 miles from Guildford.

Standing amongst level loams over clay, the mature canopy planted roughly 30 years ago predominantly comprises Scots pine which is recognised as one of Great Britain’s three native conifer. Many of the stems are of good quality and the species is recognized for its timber qualities, suitable for joinery and veneer. Occupying the eastern fringe of the wood are a number of broadleaves including oak, ash and cherry. Wonderful majestic oak can be found towards the northern boundary, beyond which are far reaching rural views. This could be a great place for occasional camping. The shrub layer below consists of birch and intermittent hazel coppice.

Occasional patches of bluebells, primrose, foxglove, lush grasses and blackberry embellish the ground layer during springtime, creating a lovely woodland scene.

A number of mammals inhabit the wider woodland such as both fallow and roe deer, fox, badger and brown long-eared bat. Within this wood, feathered visitors include little owl, woodpecker and an array of harmonious songsters.

Thorpe Wood offers potential for both an aspiring or an experienced woodsman and benefits from vehicular access for a 4WD vehicle all year round and a 2WD car in all but the very wettest of conditions.

If It Were Mine

I would certainly strim some intertwining paths throughout the trees. One of the grassy locations would make a great place to camp and enjoy a summer BBQ. As a keen amateur craftsman, I would consider using one of the Scots pine to make something for the home. This could perhaps be milled on site.   

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