The Aberdeenshire Portfolio, Aberdeenshire

Land size
84.02 acres

Description

Duff’s Hill Woodland is a mainly productive woodland extending to just over 34 hectares. The woodland is split into two sections with the woodland to the north of the public road, equating to approximately 8 hectares, that was restocked in 2009 and is mainly 15-year-old productive conifer predominantly Sitka spruce.

The woodland to the south of the public road was restocked in 2019 and is almost
entirely Sitka spruce. Access to the plantation is taken directly from the adjoining
public road and there is a well-developed harvesting facility which has been used for
previous felling operations.

The Aberdeenshire Portfolio Woodlands are located in several locations within Aberdeen and east Aberdeenshire. Locations range from the outskirts of Aberdeen City to Westhill, Peterculter and Banchory, all popular areas to live, work and enjoy the outdoors. Due to the quality of the soils, Aberdeenshire is a renowned growing area for commercial and amenity woodland. The entire portfolio lies within approximately 30 miles of Aboyne, home to the largest commercial sawmill in Aberdeenshire.
