Woodland Management Plans

Listening to the woodland owner, understanding the woodland, understanding markets and offering a broad level of experience, means that we bring a full and clear picture to your woodland plan, incorporating cash crops with a diverse and interesting landscape. We make sure your plan will deliver what 'you' the owner needs and yet sits comfortably within the current needs of the national landscape. With experience in all types of woodland, especially coppice and Ancient Woodland, and also understanding the opportunity brought by Biomass and Woodland Burial Sites, our real and solid approach is one that can be relied on.

A woodland management plan will provide the following:

• Detailed assessment of the overall woodland

• Current condition of the woodland - features, weaknesses, threats and opportunities

• Statements explaining the long term vision, objectives and management intent

• Survey of each woodland compartment and block

• Felling proposals

• 1-5 year work plan

• 6-10 year broader work plan

• Research into site restrictions which may affect the project objectives

• Mapping of compartments and work for each block

• Mapping of gates, fencing, other access points

• Mapping of archaeological points

• A breakdown of grant schemes relevant to the plan

We have an excellent understanding of ancient woodlands and how to bring over-stood coppice back into rotation, and we have experience of consultancy for an award winning natural burial site, combined with a woodland restoration project.

Concentrating on woodland advice, we offer a full range of practical solutions and support for woodland owners.
