Coed Aber Artro

Coed Aber Artro is a component of the well-wooded local landscape to the east of the village of Llanbedr. Characterised by semi-natural broadleaved woodland (mainly semi-natural ancient woodland) and dominated by sessile oak grading into ash in the damper areas, this woodland has been modified by the introduction of beech which is now a major feature of the eastern sector. There are scattered mature conifers, including the remains of a small arboretum. Invading sycamore is competing vigorously especially in the southern area, although some thinning has taken place. Light rhododendron is also present, although kept under control.
