FULL DETAILS INCLUDING BROCHURE AND PLANS DOWNLOADABLE FROM THE SELLING AGENTS WEBSITE www.tustins.co.uk An opportunity to own one of the premier productive oak woodlands in the UK.  The amount of mature timber ready for harvest and the condition of naturally regenerating saplings is inspiring. Bell Coppice is an excellent example of Wyre forest oak production with all the nature benefits that come with that species. The forest is also a SSSI (Site of Special Scientific Interest) and NNR (National Nature Reserve) which has been closely supervised and funded to some extent by Natural England. The wood is also classified as Ancient Woodland. xx A visitor to the forest will immediately notice a large amount of deer fencing. These fences have been erected to exclude deer from areas within the forest to protect the trees from browsing and help to facilitate oak natural regeneration. The approximate location of the fences is shown on the sale plan. xx The effect of this fencing is really noticeable inside the exclusion areas with plenty of oak regeneration at various stages of development that have not been browsed. These fences, together with a strong deer management ethos, has also led to good regeneration outside the fenced areas. There has been a vigilant and constant control of squirrels within Bell Coppice. It would appear squirrel numbers have fallen significantly and damage to young trees 10 to 40 years of age has been reduced. xx There is a small stream that runs through the centre of the woods, running within and outside of the deer compartments. The owners have constructed over twenty "natural flood management dams". The stream has not been known to run dry. xx In 1972 the owners purchased from the British Railways Board a 9 acre linear stretch of former railway line which runs the entire length of the northern boundary. An invaluable asset for access and extraction. FURTHER DETAILS ABOUT THIS PROPERTY ARE DOWNLOADABLE FROM THE SELLING AGENTS WEBSITE.
