Penn Wood, one of Britain's last surviving areas of ancient woodland, with.432 acres of mixed trees
as well as grassland, is in a place of outstanding natural beauty. The wood has a record of public
usage, stretching back through recorded history, but recently, the menace of 'development and
improvement' threatened its survival. In a region already well -endowed with golf courses, the owner
submitted plans for yet another 18 -hole course. However, this angered local residents. They put up
so much opposition to the plans that they were turned down by the Environment Secretary. Frustrated
by the strength of the opposition he was receiving, the landowner eventually sold up, and the land
was bought by the Woodland Trust, which will preserve the whole site as a prime wildlife habitat.
