Allt Dol-felfed is a mixed woodland, partly ancient woodland, with oak, beech, ash, sycamore and other mixed broadleaves, and with about half planted with Norway Spruce and other conifers. Access to this wood is slow going in places, and harvesting the conifer crop, if desired, would best be described as “challenging”!

The wood is primarily south- and east-facing, running along the side of the valley of a stream that feeds into the Eastern Cleddau a few yards south of the wood   The whole width of the stream is included within the boundary of Allt Dol-felfed.

The northern end of the wood is classified as PAWS (a Plantation on an Ancient Woodland Site). A smaller area in the centre of the wood, and an area towards the southern end, are classified as Ancient Semi-Natural woodland. This means that the ancient woodland parts have had continuous tree cover for at least 400 years.

Access: the wood is currently only accessible on foot from the road at the southern edge, along the route of a public footpath. At the moment, this path is partly obstructed by trees, but this area of the wood is well-spaced, with little undergrowth, so it is easy to find a route to walk through. 

A large part of the centre of the wood has suffered extensive windblow over the last few years, much now covered by a healthy profusion of brambles, making progress through this area exceptionally challenging and slow.

Wildlife:  In the spring, the wood is alive with the sound of birdlife. While taking photographs for the sales particulars a variety of species were seen or heard, including Nuthatch, Wren, Marsh Tit, Blue Tit, Great Tit, Robin, Blackbird, Blackcap, Chaffinch and Song Thrush.  A variety of woodland flowers can also be found in the spring, including snowdrops and bluebells.

Boundaries:  the eastern boundary is the river. The southern boundary is the public highway.  All other boundaries are believed to be fenced.  There are no known fencing liabilities.

Sporting rights: Included.

Mineral rights: Not included (but ownership unknown).

Stocking Schedule: the wood was planted with over 17 acres of Norway Spruce, just over an acre with a mixture of Sitka Spruce, Grand Fir, and Noble Fir, by the owners, the Forestry Commission, in 1966, with the remaining area of almost 21 acres being uneven aged broadleaves. The Forestry Commission sold the wood in 1991.

Public access: there is a public footpath through the southern end of Allt Dol-felfed. A neighbouring land owner has a right to drive cattle over a route through the middle of the wood, but it is a right that may no longer be exercised.

Local area: the wood is just 6 miles north of the A40, Narberth is just over 7 miles to the south and Haverfordwest is 14 miles to the south-west.  Tenby is 19 miles away.
