Lot 1 – Tower Wood – 41.94 Hectares / 103.63 Acres.

The property lies on a limestone escarpment, rising from 50m ASL to about 180m ASL with northerly and westerly aspects. The lower slopes are steepest, with numerous small cliffs and rock outcrops, with less steep ground in the south. The woodland is a mixture of native broadleaved species including oak, ash, hazel and rowan to the north and lower slopes with mixed conifers towards the plateau. The Sitka spruce and Japanese larch is yet unthinned and will provide worthwhile income when eventually clear felled. A stand of good Douglas fir occupies the lowest southern slope and gives an indication of the good timber this property can produce. The lower slopes are a mixture of ancient semi-natural and ancient replanted woodlands. Future management could focus on restoration of the ancient woodland areas or carry on with growing commercial conifers (where approved).

An area surrounding Pen-y-Graig cottage is excluded from the sale but a right of access for all purposes is retained as sown B1-B2. For more information, please contact the Selling Agents.

Transient herds of fallow deer populate the North Wales coastal region and are frequently seen in all areas of Abergele Woods, which will present some challenging stalking. There is a right of way for timber extraction along farmland at the southern edge of the property, approximately 30’ wide, with the right to construct. This is shown as A6-A7-A8. For more information, please contact the Selling Agents.

Lot 2 – Coed Ysgeriallt – 21.59 Hectares / 53.35 Acres.

The smaller of the two woodlands is a little more secluded. A winding stone track leads from the entrance gate downhill to a turning area. Below the track is a small stream, Nant y Bryniau, which eventually enters Colwyn Bay. The main track leads uphill through a mixture of conifers and native broadleaves and out though a top gate onto a minor road. A few isolated clumps of spruce have dies through defoliation. The cause for this is unknown but not thought to be endemic. As with Coed Abergele, the property is a mixture of ancient semi-natural and ancient replanted woodland. The mixed conifers include Douglas fir, Sitka spruce, Japanese larch and grand fir. Again fallow deer are a regular visitor to this part of the woodland.

In 2013, a section of the woodland was thinned and restocked with a mixture of Douglas fir and Sitka spruce. These species are growing vigorously on the fertile and freely-draining soil. The naturally seeded native broadleaves add to the mixed character of the woodland. There is a right of way for timber extraction along farmland from the western edge of the property to the minor road alongside Ysgeirallt Farm, approximately 30’ wide, with the right to construct. This is shown as A9-A10. For more information, please contact the Selling Agents.
