Early Engagement Mickleholme & Newball Grange

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 two new woodlands on land we have recently bought at Mickleholme and Newball Grange.

Why your views matter

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 woodlands.

What happens next

Your feedback, as well as site surveys, will help shape how the new woodland could look and we will share our draft proposals with you in a public consultation Spring/Summer 2025
