Description

The property is an interesting mix of established native broadleaves. Planted species include silver birch, common alder, willow and a smaller proportion of wild cherry, bird cherry,

hazel, rowan and sessile oak. Dolgarrog Woodland was established in early 2017 under the Glastir Woodland Creation Scheme (Contract Reference: P0000060) and is fully registered

with the Woodland Carbon Code. The scheme is predicted to produce 11,858 PIUs (Pending Issuance Units), of which 61 were converted to WCUs (Woodland Carbon Units) in

2022. The planted areas are now well established and an annual maintenance payment is paid to the owner of the property until the scheme comes to an end. The outstanding

payments will be paid to the purchaser. For more information please contact the Selling Agents.

In addition to the woodland, the property also includes 5.1 hectares of grazing land across four fields adjacent to the River Conwy. There is potential for grazing rental or further

woodland creation (subject to the necessary permissions).

A hard stone track leads to the centre of the property which is easily accessible with a 4×4. Several other tracks lead across the property and towards the river. A number of mature

oak and ash trees on these field boundaries compliment the young woodland and open ground.
