Monkswood Wood, Maidstone, Kent

Land size
6 acres

Description

An incredibly diverse and characteristic ancient woodland. Situated off the A20 in an easy to reach part of Kent the woodland has many intriguing features. The topography is varied, from a flat natural clearing amongst the mature Western red cedar where a rustic bench has been installed, to the slopes down into an old shallow sand quarry where a spectacular veteran oak is found. Despite the wood nestling between the A20 and M20, this interesting topography means the roads are not in fact visible from the majority of the woodland. This offers a great sense of privacy.
