Early engagement Fishleigh

Overview

Forestry England manages and cares for the nation’s woods and forests. As England’s largest land manager, we shape landscapes andenhanceforests for people to enjoy, wildlife to flourish and businesses to grow.

Forestry England are working on designs for a new woodland on land we have purchased at Fishleigh, near the town of Hatherleigh
