General Information



General Description

The woodland is located in the Rusland Valley and Furness Low Fells, once the heart of a thriving Lakeland charcoal and coppice industry, and the wood's name hints at this history. The woodland runs above the Ashes beck and lower slopes of Thwaite Head fell, with the minor road to Greythwaite providing access along the eastern boundary.



The woodland is mostly enclosed by surrounding woodlands but the topography is varied with small streams, hollows and rocky ridges giving the woodland added variety. The woodland comprises of mainly maturing oak trees but with some open areas of birch dominated woodland and alder coppice along the beck sides.



The Boundaries are mainly stone walls in reasonable repair and these have been marked with green paint spots to confirm the extent of property.



Grant Schemes and Conditions

The vendor confirms that there has been no woodland works, grants or licences since purchased.



This has left the woodland well stocked with timber ripe for thinning and coppicing and a range of woodland grants could be sourced to help with management plans, boundary repairs, access improvements, thinning, coppicing and other environmental works.



Tenure and possession

The property is offered for sale freehold with vacant possession upon completion.



Access

Access to the wood is via minor roads from Thwaite head to the west or Greythwaite hall to the east.
