Woodland management
A woodland left alone gets crowded, dark and less healthy. A little work every few years keeps it growing well.
Thinning removes a share of the weaker and crowded trees so the best ones get more light, room and water. It produces timber and firewood, and lets light reach the woodland floor for wildflowers and young trees.
Selective felling takes out particular trees: dangerous ones beside paths and roads, diseased trees such as ash with dieback, or trees marked in a management plan.
Rides and tracks are cleared and flailed so vehicles, walkers and riders can get through.
After felling, timber is extracted with our forestry tractor and crane, and brash is chipped or windrowed. Much of our timber goes on to be seasoned as firewood.
