This historic town, dating circa 250 BC, derives its name from the old English meaning Sand Island. This is a character that has remained essentially unchanged. The gentle west facing topography of the wood provides an easy to traverse landscape either by foot or machine. There are several open tracks that divide the wood and aid access throughout. The species mix comprises mixed conifers and broadleaf crops including Scots pine, Japanese larch, birch, oak with small areas of sweet chestnut and beech. On the western side of the property is an area which was felled about 3 years ago. This was replanted with mixed broadleaves. Cambridge 20 miles The amenity uses of this wood are well served by its relatively secluded location and private feel. In the south-eastern corner of compartment 4b is a small but rather picturesque pond. Cpt. 1a 1b 2 3a 3b 4a 4b 5 Total Area (ha.) 0.2 10.4 9.4 2.2 1.3 2.6 5.1 6.2 37.4 STOCKING SCHEDULE P.
