Coed Gobannium is named for Gobannium, the fortified settlement built by the Romans in approximately AD 54 which, over time, has evolved into Abergavenny and which can be seen just below the woodland across the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal. There are far reaching views out over the Usk valley beyond the Sugar Loaf looking north, and Ysgyryd Fawr looking due east.

The woodland is situated on an east facing slope with birch making up the majority of its planting. Underfoot is mossy with ferns and bramble in parts and there are hazel and holly dotted throughout.

Conifers and gorse line the western and eastern fringes but also there are two stands of Sitka in the middle of the woodland which add nice variety.

There is a stoned hardstanding area at the entrance to the woodland at its south western corner. This opens off a stoned entrance shared with neighbouring woodland Coed Ochram. The hardstanding itself is private and large enough to accommodate a camper van.

A level track running the full width of the woodland just inside the eastern boundary at the bottom of the slope, provides more useful level ground for either camping, woodstacking or bushcraft activities. Creating a zig zag path would be a practical and feasible way of connecting the hardstanding at the top of Coed Gobannium to this track at the bottom of the slope, and improving access throughout the woodland.
