Early engagement - New Luckhurst Wood

Overview

Forestry England manages and cares for the nation’s woods and forests. As England’s largest land manager, we shape landscapes and enhance forests 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 near Smarden, Kent.

You can view the location and the boundary of the new woodland (marked in red) on the image below. 

Why your views matter

These exciting changes will be happening soon.  Before we can plant any trees, we’d like to hear your views on what you would like us to consider as we develop our designs for the new woodland.
