Set amongst beautiful countryside in the Lake District National Park, Lind End Wood is a charming mixed property with many a gem to be discovered.
The property comprises a mixture of bare land for restocking,
woodland and grazing land.
xx
The restock areas were formerly planted with a mixture of larch and Sitka spruce before felling took place towards the end of 2023. We understand a Tree Health Pilot grant is currently being negotiated with the Forestry Commisison for the restocking. We also understand agreement could be sought to transfer the grant to a new owner.
xx
A small area of Norway spruce alongside Douglas fir and western red cedar can also be found within the wood.
xx
The broadleaf section of the wood comprises mainly oak
alongside hazel. This part of the property is particularly charming with many a gem to be discovered including a bark peelers hut, a charcoal platform and a mine tunnel 50m in depth. Bluebells also feature throughout.
xx
A little over a quarter of the property is pasture. In previous years there has been a grazing agreement with a local farmer with sheep grazing the land. We understand this arrangement could be possible again through separate negotiation. Alternatively, a prospective purchaser could choose to plant the land, subject to obtaining the necessary permissions.
xx
A small pond is located within the pasture with tadpoles and
damselflies abundant and a stream running nearby. The River
Lickle follows the eastern boundary.
xx
Another feature of note is a stone shelter found close to the
restock area which could make for an interesting restoration
project subject to planning permission.
xx
Part of the wood is designated as Ancient Woodland indicating
the area has been under continuous tree cover since at least the 1600s.
xx
The property benefits from two access points shown on the sale
plan marked X and Y. Internally the tracks have recently been
upgraded to facilitate the harvesting works making the property very accessible.
