Many years ago got asked by a girlfriends brother if I could help him in those woods as he was allowed to take any of the fallen wood. The deal was we split the wood 50/50 and I would bring my chainsaw as he was only using a bowsaw (he was 13 ish). We tidied up the place nicely but then got stopped as apparently some 'pro' had been in there clearing tonnes and tonnes of wood. Dont think the entrepreneurial young lad had told Lord Roborough of his plans to get help 😆 

First time I was ever called a 'pro' when in truth back then I was just a farmer with a saw and couple of log customers.

Just closed at 61k (plus the fees)

 

Would have been a reasonable buy at around 40 but 61 is a bit rich 🤑

Plenty of consultants around there who would see that as pocket money

True 😂

 

A couple of big houses backing onto it - it would have been a good buy for one of them. 
 

Maybe the one that has let their garden bamboo spread across the boundary got it. 
 

A bit of road side Ash to address too.

good grief that is expensive !! circa  £10 per acre is the usual going rate , but woodland rarely comes up for sale ...probably snapped up by cornishman who just sold a cottage for half a million ( to a non local buyer of course )
