Description

Situated on the southeastern side of a wider woodland known as Bowers Grove Wood, Hudson Wood is located 2 miles to the west of Four Marks village in rural Hampshire. Access into the woodland is along an unsurfaced track.

Sloping gently southeast and amongst chalky loamy soils, the mature canopy consists of majestic beech, ash, oak, sycamore and birch. In the shrub layer below you will find hazel coppice (a very handy bushcraft material), holly with regeneration of ash, sycamore and beech. The ground layer is awash with colourful bluebells, wood anemones, primrose and dog’s mercury - all looking particularly picturesque come spring and summer.

There are a number of open spaces under the tall canopy that a new custodian could clear for a decent camping area to enjoy with family.  A stem or two of beech could also be considered for wood smoking chips, using the Forestry Commission thinning licence currently in place. In addition, you might also glimpse a vintage locomotive puffing by along the heritage Watercress Line close to the southeastern boundary.  

An assortment of feathered visitors such as greenfinch, treecreeper, woodpecker, owl and countless harmonious songbirds have been seen and heard in this serene location. Woodland mammals include muntjac, roe and fallow deer, yellow-necked mouse, badger, hare and fox.

If It Were Mine

A hammock or two between some sturdy stems would be high on my list; this is a lovely place to relax with a book amongst nature. Overnights under the stars with family would definitely feature along with some firewood gathering for the hearth at home.
