Owlacombe Wood

Owlacombe Wood is set either side of a small meandering river in a discrete valley near the community of Roborough. Although the wood shows signs of having been planted in the 1800s with some large Beech & Sycamore thought to be remnant standards within a field system. It is now an example of a mature Western Oak Woodland. Stored Oak coppice dominates with Ash and Birch but there are individual specimens of Beech and Sycamore which are regenerating freely.
