Conigree Wood is a mixture of native mixed broadleaf and non-native conifer woodland. The western part of the wood is designated<br/>as PAWS ‘plantation on ancient woodland site’ and some of its ancient origins are visible in the form of large coppice stools and consists of Ash, Maple, Hazel and pedunculate oak populations. The current stand is made up of 18-20th Century Beech and more recent conifer plantings with aspects of natural regeneration including Ash, Sycamore, Birch, Beech and other native broadleaves and woody shrubs, with some Yew in compartment 44a.<br/><br/>Substantial works have been undertaken over the last 25 years whereby the compartments have been brought into a regular thinning regime. Some thinning in compartments 45a and 47a has taken place in 2022 (Year 4 of the woodland management plan) with the remainder to take place in Year 6+. There is a woodland management plan in place until April 2031 and two active felling licences until April 2031 and January 2029.<br/><br/>The woodland is highly valued for its aesthetic appeal and refuge for wildlife. The majority of the woodland, compartments 46a and 47a are designated as Ancient Replanted Woodland.<br/><br/>There is a right of access along a track from the village of Rendcomb, and right of way will be granted for the extraction of timber and management of the woodland.
