Gull Coppice
A reclaimed conifer plantation now mixed secondary woodland
About the site
Gull Coppice covers 40 acres and consists of two distinct habitats. Lawson's Cypress, a non-native conifer was planted by the Forestry Commission and has since been felled.
An old wood bank, with an estimated age of over 200 years, surrounds it. It was part of the old Gull Coppice which was a large ancient woodland. The remaining section is hazel coppice with oak standards.
