Its moderately sloping south-facing aspect provides incredible views of the surrounding valley and benefits from some flatter areas towards the northern boundary. Mature oak, ash and sycamore are found in the upper canopy, with the lower canopy comprising of elm, elder, field maple, holly, and hazel. On my last visit, I observed two roe deer making their way along the track, and I could hear the calls of greater spotted woodpecker and jay. There are signs of badger and squirrels too, suggesting a diverse range of wildlife call this ancient woodland home. The woodland floor is carpeted in wild garlic, vibrant bluebells and dog’s mercury, giving a splash of colour in spring as the dappled sunlight filters through the canopy, filling the wood with their wonderful scent. Highview is well accessed by a stone track which is suitable for year-round use by two and four-wheel drive vehicles. There are no tracks or rides currently through the wood besides animal tracks, but with a bit of time and energy, one could establish steps and tracks to access all parts of the site. There is a handy pull-in area to park a vehicle off the main track for easier access to the wood.   A Forestry Commission Felling Licence is in place, but the majority of the timber related to this has already been removed. Any additional extraction could be carried out in line with the 5m³ per calendar quarter rule or a new licence would be required for anything in excess of this. Highview is an opportunity to own a wonderful piece of Ancient Woodland in a beautiful and wild part of the world. The woodland offers significant amenity value and would make a great place to camp out with friends and family, enjoying the views and sense of seclusion.  Also on offer is the perfect restoration project for someone seeking to return this woodland to its full potential as a thriving, rich and diverse environment, teeming with wildlife. <div align="center"><a href=https://www.woods4sale.co.uk/woodlands/highview-wood--near-wirksworth/12391/target="_blank"><strong>Click here to view full details on the Woods 4 Sale website</strong></a></div>
