Description

Coed y Draenog is a wonderful mix of open ground and mature trees. An open area in the northwest corner has been planted with some native broadleaf trees.  It is surrounded on three sides mostly by mature Norway spruce to the south and west and a mixture of young and old beech, oak, hazel and ash trees to the north east.

The woodland is effectively flat but does have an ever so gentle northern slope. A recently installed stone track provides year-round access in a two-wheel drive vehicle.

There is a small stream that runs down the eastern boundary of the woodland, that starts as a source only a few hundred metres up Twyn Cil-Rhew, the hill to the south of the woodland. Eventually the water in this stream will run into the Afon Wysg/River Usk that runs through Brecon, and down to Caesnewydd/Newport and empties into the Bristol channel.

A ditch has been created on the western and northern boundaries to aid drainage of rainwater. Two crossing places have been built to allow vehicular access into the woodland off the main track.

The lush areas in between the planted trees is home to a mixture of flora - predominately a variety of grasses - and could be an excellent place to pitch a tent. In the coming months and years, the areas around this will rapidly grow thick and tall and provide an excellent privacy screen. Under the semi-mature Norway spruce trees to the south, a mixture of bracken, self-seeded spruce saplings (and a few Western hemlock that have drifted in from outside the woodland boundary) and bramble make up the rough understorey.

The eastern boundary adjoins an agricultural field and has views over open pastureland with sheep and cattle grazing in the distance. On a clear day you can just make out the outer edges of the market town of Brecon.


If It Were Mine

The newly planted trees need to be kept free from weeds and competing vegetation for the first few years, so I would make this part of my regime.

I would create a circular route to access further into the woodland in a vehicle by clearing a track from the two crossings. At the mid-point of this track I would create a clearing to perhaps pitch a tent or build a little BBQ pit/firepit.

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