Description
LOT 1 – Polesburn Wood 19.22 Ha (47.49 Acres)
Polesburn Wood comprises mainly of three identifiable areas: A commercial element which was felled in spring 2025, this comprised of Sitka spruce. The Hybrid larch and Grand fir element remains as per the compartment schedule. Currently this area has not been ground prepared or restocked with trees. This area is situated to the north of the property. At the main entrance in the south, there is a mixed broadleaf area comprising mostly of birch which was planted in 2002. There is a riparian zone area bordering with the river Ythan of mixed broadleaves. This area is mainly made up of relatively young willow, birch, rowan but some trees date back as far as the 1890s. There is an obligation to replant the felled areas. Prospective owners may want to consider replanting the felled commercial area with productive conifer or further expand the mixed broadleaf element. The forest road has been upgraded for timber transport prior to the felling operation with laybys. The other mixed broadleaf area may be suitable for firewood production or amenity uses.
