About this property
**closing date - Tuesday 27th may at noon**
Drum Wood extends to approximately 15.87 hectares and sits within the Drum Castle
and Garden Designed Landscape, which defines the ‘landscaped park’ of Drum Castle.
This is an impressive 18th century landscape setting for the category a-listed Drum Castle, containing an oak woodland dating back to the 1500s.
Drum Wood has been extensively felled and restocked since it was purchased, with the most recent restock being carried out in 2005/2006, largely with native broadleaves. Drum wood also includes productive areas of Scots pine and Norway
spruce, with a small area of Sitka spruce.
The woodland lies adjacent to the Old Wood of Drum sssi which is an ancient wood that has a documented history dating back to the 13th century and is one of the largest oak woods in Aberdeenshire.
Access to the woodland is directly from the minor public road.
The Aberdeenshire Portfolio Woodlands are located in several locations within Aberdeen and east Aberdeenshire. Locations range from the outskirts of Aberdeen City to Westhill, Peterculter and Banchory, all popular areas to live, work and enjoy the outdoors. Due to the quality of the soils, Aberdeenshire is a renowned growing area for commercial and amenity woodland. The entire portfolio lies within approximately 30 miles of Aboyne, home to the largest commercial sawmill in Aberdeenshire.
