Wide-spreading oaks with hazel and chestnut coppice below, this is a fine Kent woodland where the wildlife and wood products can be managed and enjoyed.

Sporting rights:  are included

Access: from Rogers Rough Road along a hard track to a metal access gate, then over a stream keeping right at the next fork. Walk up the slope, until you get to the 'for sale' sign on the tree where the track splits. This is the start of Lower Chalybeate.  There is a right of way for all purposes and at all times along this track and the one alongside the wood with shared maintenance according to use made.

Boundaries: are the edges of the tracks either side of the wood and to the south a straight line between two wooden posts. The lower, west end, of this line meets the confluence of the track and stream.

Please note, none of these woods are suitable for residential development, other uses such as summer camping may well be suitable.
