Dormouse Project   Non Invasive Monitoring Dormouse Project Spring 2024 In the Spring of 2024 we plan to start a  Non Invasive Monitoring project to discover if we have Dormouse in our Part of the Cwmgilla Woodland. There is a likely hood that we have Resident Dormice due to the fact that our wood is a Oak & Hazel coppice woodland. So we must assume that Dormice exist in our Semi Ancient Woodland in Mid-Wales.  As our wood is only small at 1.4 acres this project will only be a small project and we have ordered only 10 Dormouse Nest Tubes which will be places around our old Hazel coppice trees. Following the advice from the People's Trust for Endangered Species ,  on Managing Small Woodlands for Dormice. Follow link below if like Us you own a small woodland and need advice. https://ptes.org/campaigns/dormice/hazel-dormouse-conservation/woodland-management/ The Nest Tubes will only be checked at the end of the year In November when any Dormouse would have Now gone to ground to Hi

Private Air Rifle Range   May 2023 Our Private Shooting Range has now been installed at our site. The Shooting range will give Us a private Safe place to Practice Air Gun / Rifle Target shooting. Here we will be able to enjoy the sport of target shooting.  Air guns can be Dangerous so Safety glasses are to be warn at all timed while in the shooting area.  BBs & Pellets can injury or even kill ! Many of the other Woodland Owners around Cwm Gilla Wood also have there own Shooting Ranges as each woodland owner own's the Sporting & Mineral Rights to there part of Cwmgilla wood. So we have also decided to Join in the Sport of Target Shooting and set our own Shooting Range!  After having a go at one of our Neighbours Shooting Ranges. Great fun & also practice good for Pest control controlling the Grey Squirrels as part of our Management of our Coppice Wood.  Grey Squirrels not only damage the trees but also cause egg predation by steeling eggs from birds nests for food.
