Description

Pigshill and Clarrick Woods CIC was formed in 2013 to manage 66-acres of woodland under a long lease.

It is run by six directors drawn from the local community and another three advisers. The work is accomplished with the help of enthusiastic volunteers and stakeholders.

Our key objectives are:

Protect and enhance the woods' ecosystem

Create employment and training opportunities for local people

Improvements in well-being for locals and visitors

Encourage education about the area's natural environment

There are a range of habitats and a mix of historical silvicultural systems across the woodlands; including areas of scrub, coppice, single-species stands and mixed-broadleaved woodland.

The far east end of the wood contains mixed-broadleaved woodlands, listed as ancient semi-natural woodlands with oak, ash and other canopy species. Within the woods we have planted areas with locally dominant beech, sweet chestnut and Scots pine. At the far west end, following the clear-fell of larch, there is hazel coppice and open areas of scrub where we are now seeing natural regeneration amongst the new planting. In this area we are witnessing a richness of wildlife including insects, birds and amphibians with the shrub and flora providing vital food and shelter.

Pigshill and Clarrick Woods has been awarded funding by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund CIoS Good Growth Community Levelling Up for infrastructure, equipment and vehicle upgrading.
