A Woodland - Not a Project!
Over the three years I have got to know and experience Bel's Wood I have named special places & special trees. I have adopted the language of 'zones' to develop the planting plan to apply for a woodland creation grant and communicate clearly what work I wanted the various contractors who have helped prepare and then plant the land to complete. Now that the trees are in the ground I want to change back to calling places by their 'found' names. I have drawn out the areas below and will describe the areas of the wood and the trees that have been planted there. I've highlighted named trees and a few special locations. Yellow - areas Green - named trees Blue - functions Home (lower part of Zone 1) 80 trees planted This is where the access gate is from the road that runs along the bottom of the wood on the east side and runs parallel with the River Gilpin. There is an apron of rising grassy land which was previously engulfed in bracken but there is little evidence...
