Plot 14 Baddengorm Wood is part of a larger predominantly
Scots pine forest planted circa 1975. The wood appears to be
almost untouched since planting and the trees have grown
unchecked producing a woodland approaching maturity and
resembling the natural pine woodlands for which Scotland is
famed. The trees appear to have thinned themselves over the
years leaving them nicely spaced allowing enough light to filter
down onto the woodland floor to promote growth of the
understorey. The trees are also covered in a prolific growth of
lichens.
Further thinning of the wood may be an option for the future
should a new owner wish to manage the woodland.
Visitors to the wood will find blaeberry and heather under foot
which creates a warm feeling of how nature if left alone can just
get on with her work.
For those with an ornithological interest the wider forest is
understood to contain the elusive capercaillie. A new owner may
wish to assist in the local drive to conserve and encourage this
important bird as it re-colononizes parts of Scotland. Other
wildlife potentially includes red squirrels and wood ants, now so
difficult to find in the UK.
There is growing interest in woodland owners constructing
temporary bothy or woodland shelters in Scotland, and subject to
local planning approval this might be possible in this wood.
