<div align="center"><a href="https://www.woods4sale.co.uk/woodlands/south-wales/2335.htm" target="_blank"><strong>View More Details</strong></a></div> Cob Wood is a private woodland that lies on a north facing slope, overlooking the meandering River Teifi and the market town of Llandysul beyond. Access is via a shared entrance gate, where there is a stacking area that the owners of Cob Wood and other woodland owners can use to stack timber and park machinery. A stoned track gives way to a softer surface, extending right up to and through the middle of the woodland. The trees within Cob Wood comprise a mixture of mature broadleaves, with oak being the predominant species (around 70%). Some of these are lovely and straight and if felled could produce timber for milling and a substantial amount of firewood. There is minimal ground vegetation owing to a fairly closed canopy - mostly ferns, mosses, small amounts of bramble, as well as a myriad of self-seeded oaks, beeches, hazel, hawthorn and holly trees. Whilst the land is on a north facing slope, the internal track is perfect for a number of uses, whether forestry access or leisure activities. A bit of clearance on the lower slopes will open up the outlook to reveal the phenomenal views over the river and the town. There are a few signs of badgers at the top of the woodland, and there are plenty of squirrels scampering around as well as a host of songbirds that create a lovely background noise to enjoy whilst in the woods. All in all, Cob Wood benefits from some fantastic quality oak that could produce great timber in years to come. There is a ready quantity of firewood that could be harvested for personal use or on a more commercial scale, subject to the correct permissions and licences. An extra feature is a perfectly discreet camping spot in the site of an old quarry that with some work could make a great place for wild camping, perhaps crafting a lean-to or some sort of wet weather cover. If It Were Mine I would consider felling (and replanting) a large proportion of the trees on the upper slope, either as a commercial operation with a view to selling to the local firewood market or for my own use – or a bit of both. Extraction could be via the main track and stacked near the gate or taken up the slope and across the adjoining farmer’s field subject to their agreement. The old quarry adjacent to the northern boundary could provide a good amount of stone to maintain/upgrade the main access track and in doing so would create a space for a discreet campsite with great views (subject to a bit of thinning of the trees beneath it). Please remember some management operations require approval and/or a licence. <div align="center"><a href="https://www.woods4sale.co.uk/woodlands/south-wales/2335.htm" target="_blank"><strong>View More Details</strong></a></div>
