Key information
Property description & features
The woodland can be divided into three sections, West Blackmuir wood at the northern end which comprises of mainly commercial Sitka Spruce with some Larch in the crop, a large area of open ground which is subject to a management agreement with a public body and lastly the
woodland area to the south which comprises of blocks of native broadleaves and areas of Norway Spruce and Scots Pine.
In addition to the management agreement in place, the aforementioned public body rent
a small area for use as a car park and a network of paths over the land and through the
woodland. An annual rent is received for both the management agreement and the lease.
The Sitka Spruce is growing well and has a particularly good stocking density. The trees have
a uniform height and there is little sign of windblow despite the high winds we have recently experienced. The Sitka Spruce is all 20 years old and has a yield class of 22-24. The Norway Spruce is also growing well and has a good stocking density and uniform height. The Scots Pine and Larch is growing relatively poorly, stocking densities are considered reasonable.
The Broadleaves are growing well but have variable stocking densities but on the whole it is
generally good.
There is a management agreement in place with NatureScot covering approximately 19.25ha of the open ground in the middle of the property. The aim of the agreement is to allow positive management of the area of wetland and peatlands immediately adjacent to Blawhorn Moss SSSI and NNR.
The woodland is situated just 5 miles from junction 5 on the M8 motorway, providing excellent transport links to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Stirling and beyond.
The property can be accessed from public and private roads. The car park, Blawhorn Moss Car Park, is accessed via public road from the A89 and the northern end of the woodland is accessed via private road for which the property benefits from a right of access over.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
