Description

Coed Felin Fach occupies the hilltop and southerly face of a ridgeline and benefits from shared roadside access from the south by way of a stone track whichleads all the wayto the woodland boundary. Parking is available at the top and a roughly cleared track leads to the flat hilltop of the ridge from the northeast corner.

Comprising of mixed broadleaves (mostly ash, sycamore, beech with an understorey of holly, hazel, hawthorn) and the occasional Scots pine, there are signs of historical management of the woodland. Natural regeneration of the ash and other trees have taken over the ground in places, but with a little work could easily be cleared. Patches of laurel and rhododendronadd perennial greenery, although they do have a tendency to spread as they grow well under shade. On the plus side these can be utilised to create secluded places to shelter, and the flowers add colour to the woodland environment in the spring.

The woodland was once part of a larger estate with access tracks that crisscross the wider area. Along the ridgelinethere are signs of the track which are recorded on OS maps, but now overgrown. Opening this up would allow vehicle access into the middle of a large plateau in the northwest corner of the woodland.

In summary,Coed Felin Fach presents the ideal opportunity for someone with a conservation mindset to bring a forgotten woodland back into good management,perhaps implementingsensitive operations to open up the canopy, creating space for other tree and plant species to flourish.

If It Were Mine

Clearing the old estate track would be my number one priority as this would allow access to the plateau. I would build a little staging post, and perhaps create a wet weather shelter/lean-to.

Clearing the overgrown bramble and slowly felling some trees to create space in the canopy, allowing more light to reach the woodland floor would be my next task.

This is also the perfect location to camp under the stars and produce a moderate amount of firewood for the home hearth and even a little campfire.

Please remember some management operations require approval and/or a licence.

Directions & Access

• From Llandeilo, head west along the A40.
• Drive for approximately 8 miles.
• When you drive past signs for Llanegwad on the left and pass “Jones Television & Electrical Store” on the right, shortly thereafter you will see a sharp, unsign-posted, right hand turn (if you come to Pont-ar-gothi you have gone too far).
• Turn right here and drive along this track for approximately 1 mile until you come to a house on the left with a large well-kept sloping garden. Immediately before there should be a metal farm gate with a Woods4sale sign. This is the roadside entrance to the access track that leads to the woodland (point A). Please park here, off to one side, if possible, otherwise continue for another 100 metres, just past the house and on the same side of the road should be a second farm gate set back, with another Woods4Sale sign (pointX) - please park here and walk back to the gate at A.
• Climb the gate (sorry, we do not provide keys for viewing purposes) and walk up the track until you reach an orange painted tree on the left and an orange and blue wooden post on the right (point B).
• The start of the woodland is in front of you.
