DOWNLOAD BROCHURE AND PLANS FROM SELLING AGENTS WEBSITE www.tustins.co.uk 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.
