Wedge Meadow, Kent
- Land size
- 3.75 acres
Description
Wedge Meadow is a varied and characterful parcel of land that pairs a stretch of broadleaf woodland with a run of open meadow, the two sitting side by side to create a balanced landscape. The meadow was formerly a part of the wider Brogues Wood Estate, once owned by the Prime Minister of Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) – Sir John Kotelawala.
The land takes its name from its broadly tapering shape, the boundaries splaying gradually apart to give the parcel a distinctive form. Roughly one half is given over to broadleaf woodland, where oak, birch and hornbeam rise above a scattered understorey, the canopy opening here and there to let light fall onto the woodland floor. This is a peaceful, sheltered place, alive with birdsong and the movement of small mammals, and offering a welcome contrast to the openness alongside it.
The remaining half is open meadow, a softly undulating sweep of grassland framed by trees yet retaining a good outlook over the wider area. The transition between wood and field is gradual and natural, and seedlings drifting out from the established trees have already begun to take hold along the meadow’s edge - promising the slow, natural spread of woodland for anyone content to let nature lead, or a head start for those wishing to plant in earnest. Grants are available for such woodland creation.
Access is along a well-made stoned track, ending at a practical entrance point with a pad of hardstanding where a vehicle may be parked throughout the year. From here the open ground stretches ahead, with the wooded half rising to one side, the two separated in places by stock fencing through which the woodland may be entered. The boundaries are clearly demarcated with coloured paint and a combination of stakes and fencing. With its blend of shelter and openness, Wedge Meadow would suit anyone seeking an amenity parcel with real variety and the potential for conservation or woodland creation. The land is not proposed for residential or other development. Early viewing advised.
