Majestic larch rise above a broadleaf understorey of sycamore, elm, beech and sweet chestnut. Towards the northern boundary track is a small area of relatively young oak. Probably around 60 years old, their well-distributed seedings are a promise of things to come. Small species such as cherry, rowan and hawthorn are often entwined by fragrant honeysuckle.

Easily spotted holes in the moss are often the nests of stoats and weasels, with more energetic earthworks created by nocturnal badgers. Probably our most photogenic native mammal, the red squirrel, is resident within the wood. A local charity is actively taking measures to protect this endangered species and secure its future. The variety of habitats give plenty of cover for tits and finches; standing deadwood a ready larder for percussive woodpecker. Ground nesting woodcock lurk, well camouflaged against the fallen autumn leaves, with jays a key factor in the distribution of fallen acorns.

A small timber stacking area is available to facilitate the use and potentially the management of the wood. For a more relaxed approach, a rustic bench is opportunity to sit quietly and absorb the surrounding wildlife activity.

Lady Rosalind's Wood has excellent transport links. By car from the A69 or by rail from the Newcastle to Carlisle line. Brampton station is literally at the main entrance with a short walk required to the wood. Within the wood, a former railway line is now the main access track with a good hard spur suitable for most vehicles. A short footpath leads from the timber stacking area to the woodland bench.

The sporting rights are owned and are included in the sale.

The large variety of trees and planting are in an ideal state for selective thinning of the mature conifers to be undertaken. This would allow the native deciduous trees to assert themselves and take over the space created. A very useful supply of domestic firewood could be sourced from this sympathetic process, as well as contributing to the management of the woodland to encourage and increase bio-diversity.

A small timber stacking area is present to assist in the management and conservation of the woodland as a whole.

The old Alston to Brampton railway line is now a footpath that runs through a cutting on the north-eastern boundary of the wood." The Dandy" also operated a horse-drawn passenger service from Brampton town to Brampton Junction in the late 1800's. Lady Rosalind, from nearby Naworth Castle was instrumental in persuading the reluctant railway owners to upgrade the line to a steam drawn service, as well as a campaigner promoting women's political rights and temperance.

Lady Rosalind's Wood is also within easy reach of the pleasant market town of Brampton with a wide variety of local services. In the wider area is the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) with plenty of B+Bs locally, catering for visitors to the not too distant Hadrians Wall.
