Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox forest Bagger Wood is a Шаблон:Convert woodland in the English county of South Yorkshire, near to the village of Hood Green, about Шаблон:Convert south-west of Barnsley. The wood forms part of the South Yorkshire Forest and is within an Area of Great Landscape Value.[1] It is owned and managed by the Woodland Trust.[1]

History

Bagger Wood is an ancient woodland site, dating back to at least 1600. Traditionally a wood of broadleaved trees, a large number of conifers were planted at the site in the 1960s.[1] In 2008, the Woodland Trust began a two-year programme of restoration work to encourage the native broadleaves, using a £10,000 grant from the Waste Recycling Group.[2]

Access and management

The wood is currently owned by the Woodland Trust, which manages the wood in partnership with a local community group.[3] As with all other Woodland Trust woodlands, Bagger Wood is open to the public, and the Trust estimates that it receives around 3000 visitors per year. There is a circular path through the wood for walkers, and also a forest track through the centre suitable for horse riders. The wood has its own car park.[1]

Flora and fauna

The wood is a mixture of conifers and broadleaves, such as oak, beech and sycamore. The latter mostly date from the 1930s, while the conifers have been planted more recently.[1]
