Description

Barrow Wood is a mature woodland that sits in an elevated position above the wider wooded area. It consists mainly of prime Welsh oak with small numbers of ash, rowan, birch and sycamore scattered throughout.  The trees are well spaced and it is evident that the woodland has been thinned in the past and now enjoys a developing understorey of hazel and naturally germinated young trees. It is also abundant with honeysuckle vines spiralling up the lower canopy of trees.

This beautiful wood sits on a north facing slope and has a narrow ride leading in to the wood from the west side. Walking along this ride the wood has an undisturbed feel complimented by a rich carpet of flora including grasses, ferns, anemones, bluebells, and primroses.

Access to Barrow Wood from the council road is along a hard surfaced, winding forest track that climbs the hill. At the end of the track is parking and turning, there is also an old soft track into the wood that is a little over grown but provides access and a lovely spot to view the wood. This track is suitable for a car giving access to a commanding position at the top of the wood.

Barrow Wood is a delightful plot that is perfect for the enjoyment of the whole family, inspiring both children and adults alike to get involved in nature and take a break from everyday life.  The wood can also be managed to provide fuel for the fire and is the perfect setting for the recreational woodsman.


If It Were Mine

This wood needs very little work and should be enjoyed for what it is, but consider removing a few of the poorer trees and encourage some of the regenerating oaks with stakes and protection. I would clear the vegetation on the soft track and make it accessible either by vehicle or foot. I would also find a sturdy tree and attach a rope swing.
