Description

Dean Wood is a delightful mature oak woodland situated within 5 minutes’ drive of the market town of Knighton. This amenity woodland sits in a commanding position with wonderful views to the east over the town and the valley beyond. It is predominantly sessile oak with the occasional ash, sycamore, rowan and birch.

Historically the woodland has been well managed, which has resulted in a very fine stand of well-spaced trees. It has an undisturbed feel, and is host to a wide variety of wildlife including foxes and badgers - a delight for nature lovers.  The unique upland oak woodland habitat contains an abundance of flora including bilberry, ferns and bluebells that provide a colourful display of flowers in spring and summer. Such a rich ecology supports distinct breeding birds such as pied flycatcher, redstart, and wood warbler, with frequently heard tawny owls and woodpeckers, along with a range of deadwood invertebrates.

Dean Wood has a hawthorn and hazel hedge along the north boundary and woodland on all other sides. Access is via a hard surfaced forest track that winds up and down the hillside leading into the wood, where you can turn and park. An overgrown path runs the entire length of the wood, where one can enjoy views looking out over grazed pasture and along the valley.

Dean Wood is the perfect choice for those looking to own a small piece of beautiful woodland for leisure purposes - including camping - and to get closer to nature. There is also plenty of scope for the new owner to actively manage the woodland to produce quantities of plank grade timber and firewood for the home.


If It Were Mine

The woodland does not need much work doing to it, the oak trees are well spaced and need no immediate work. I would take this rare opportunity to enjoy the woodland as it currently is.

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