Heggadon Wood was part of the Braddon Estate which originally included the 17th Century farmhouse found near the access track.

The woodland was planted in the early 2000's as part of a shift to using coppiced timber to use as woodchip to power a woodchip boiler system. The boiler system is no longer in use so the trees have been able to grow into an attractive broadleaved woodland.

At the entrance there is a stoned parking area and once into the woodland, heading west and north, there are grassy rides, level areas suited for camping. A rustic picnic bench has been installed here, whilst visiting please take some time to sit here and take in the atmosphere.

Within the south eastern section of the woodland is an area of wet woodland - seen as a priority woodland habitat. Parts of this area are boggy and as with other areas of the wider woodland area here there is scope for creating some good sized wildlife ponds.

Peacefully located, Heggadon Wood has good links to Dartmoor as well as the north Devon coastline.

This woodland and the surround woodlands have been identified by the Local Authority as an important habitat feature within the landscape and as such have been given a further recognised level of protection with an Article 4 designation. This allows enjoyment and management of the woodland but will require planning permission for anything that usually falls under permitted development.
