Old Newton Wood, Sallow Coppice, Craven Arms, Shropshire
- Land size
- 5.25 acres
Description
Old Newton Wood is at the southern end of Sallow Coppice. It is accessed along a newly refurbished track suitable for vehicles. From the parking area there are tracks that lead off into and around the woodland.
The trees at the higher part of the woodland are mature Oak, Sycamore, Chestnut and Beech to name a few. Historical thinning has encouraged strong growth, and some gentle woodland management would benefit the woodland greatly. On the lower slopes, there are Birch, Sycamore and younger trees.
To the southern end of the woodland, while we were working there (wintertime), we noticed large beds of Snowdrops coming into flower, and there was signs of Bluebells appearing in the higher parts of the wood.
All of Sallow Coppice is classified as an Ancient and Semi Natural Woodland (ASNW) meaning it has been under continuous tree cover of native tree and shrub species since at least 1600 AD. They are relatively undisturbed by human development. As a result, they are unique and complex communities of plants, fungi, insects and other microorganisms.
With some gentle woodland management, this beautiful woodland will flourish. We have hidden a bench in the middle of the trees - a place to sit and reflect, or perhaps listen and gently observe this lovely mature woodland.
Note - Although there are paths on the ground, there are no public or permissive footpaths in Old Newton Wood.
