Coulson Wood forms part of a larger area of woodland and meadow nestled between the nearby village of Winkleigh and the closer village of Broadwoodkelly. Both villages have names that reflect the importance of the history of woodland in this part of Devon - Winkleigh takes its name from two Saxon words - 'wincel' meaning 'corner' and 'leah' meaning 'clearing in a forest' while Broadwoodkelly takes part of it's name from the Kelly family who held the local manor.
Coulson Wood was most likely planted sometime in the 1960's and has since thrived in the fertile soil to form a glorious woodland. Running along the western boundary is a clear seasonal stream. This arises from a nearby spring which eventually joins the river Okement near the village of Jacobstowe.
The topography of the woodland is favourable and generally level.
The woodland takes its name from a local farmstead and crossroads. The name Coulson is thought to be an ancient Anglo-Saxon name derived from a surname that means son of Col. The name Col is thought to stem from the Old Welsh name Coll, which means hazel, one of the many species of trees found within the woodland.
