We will be accessing the woodland from the North using existing forest tracks which are within the conservation area but outside of the SAM boundary. Due to the gradient of the woodland, the machinery will sit on the track and trees will be hand felled down and up to the machinery and converted in situ. Timber lengths will then be extracted by forwarder to the stacking area at The Lawns Farm, which is outside of the conservation area. Brash and tops will be left on sit and cut up into pieces no bigger than 1 metre in length. There will be no ground disturbance required as part of this operation.There are multiple trees which have individual and group TPOs on them, we will be requiring a site visit with the County's Tree Officer to discuss how to retain these trees except where there are disease issues.
