A mixed age commercial woodland with a well-established history of productive timber growth, situated within the East Devon National Landscape.
Situated within the East Devon National Landscape, Kilmington
is a mixed-age commercial woodland with a well-established
history of productive timber growth.
xx
The woodland is predominantly stocked with conifers, including
Sitka spruce and Douglas fir as the principal species,
complemented by Scots pine, Japanese larch and western red
cedar. Pockets of mixed broadleaved trees are also present,
enhancing both biodiversity and amenity value.
xx
Kilmington displays a varied age structure, with the earliest
crops dating back to 1957 and more recent conifer restocking
undertaken over the past seven years. These younger
plantings have generally established well. Among the mature
stands, the 1960 Douglas fir and Sitka spruce in the northern
section together with the 1962 Douglas fir in the southern
section, have performed particularly strongly and demonstrate
the woodland’s excellent timber-growing potential. Strong
natural regeneration is also evident throughout the property.
xx
The woodland operates under a Woodland Management Plan
running until May 2028 and benefits from three active felling
licences. Felling under the two earliest licences has already
been completed, together with the associated restocking, and
a purchaser will assume responsibility for managing the
restocked areas in accordance with the licence conditions.
Further details can be provided by the Selling Agents.
xx
Access is available either directly from Roman Road, which
runs through the property, or via the access point marked X on
the sale plan. The Roman Road is designated as a Byway Open
to All Traffic (BOAT).

Of high priority for a new owner should be the maintenance of the restocked areas to ensure their successful growth in accordance with the felling licence conditions.  In addition, a purchaser may wish to create some tracks through the northern section to facilitate better access.  This would also enable clearance of some of the windblown areas in this section.
