The beautiful woodland is designated as an Ancient Semi-Natural Woodland (ASNW) and is covered by a Tree Preservation Order (TPO).

Both lots are situated on level ground with good access off Woodburn Street and host a variety of native broadleaf species including oak, ash with some sycamore and Scots pine scattered through the wood.

Both lots have recently been thinned to remove some of the sycamore and pine with the aim to restore the native mix therefore little work will be needed for the next few years, although any tree work would require relevant TPO permission from the Council and Forestry Commission.

There is an abundant understocking growing which hosts a range of woodland birds and animals. This would be an ideal opportunity for a local person to purchase a unique plot of Northumberland to enjoy the wildlife.

Lot 1 is the larger of the two blocks and hosts a permissive path which is well used by the local residents. Lot 2 is private with no public right of access.

Freehold with Vacant Possession on Completion.
