Mature oak, ash, sweet chestnut, hornbeam, field maple, elder, hazel and hawthorn are all found in the wood. Whilst some of the ash is showing signs of die-back, there are a plethora of seedlings thriving on the woodland floor - including naturally regenerating ash, field maple and sycamore. In the coming years this woodland has enormous potential to provide a steady and sustainable supply of excellent firewood.

Jaggers Wood has been designated as Ancient Semi-Natural Woodland (ASNW) by Natural England. This is woodland that has been under constant tree cover since at least 1600AD. It is valued as a rich reserve of biodiversity.

The Woodland Wildlife toolkit suggests the range of bird species including Garden Warbler, Hawfinch, Spotted Flycatcher, Willow Warbler, Woodcock and Lesser Redpoll might be present within the woodland, either breeding or over-wintering. A new owner could install some bird boxes and build a simple hide to observe which species are present.

Access to Jaggers Wood is via a single locked wooden gate off Batts Road (an owner will be provided the combination number for this locked gate). A track leads to the ride stop entrance to Jaggers Wood. Here owners are able to drive in and park a car within the wood itself. A convenient timber stacking area by the main gates will be shared with other woodland owners.

A public footpath abuts the south boundary of Jaggers Wood as shown on the woodland map.

The wood is sold with the sporting rights.

The owner of Jaggers Wood will be asked to enter a covenant to ensure the quiet and peaceful enjoyment of the wood.

A fantastic family wood - great for camping and numerous outdoor activities. Why not set up a private camp for overnight stays, or simply come for a relaxing day out and picnic within the trees, or see what birds can be spotted in the woods? There is a good supply of timber for a wood burner or open fire – from using up dead wood already on the forest floor to getting a felling licence in place, there is potentially a lifetime supply of wood available to the new owner.

Jaggers Wood is situated about 7 miles south-west of Rochester and 7 miles south of Gravesend. It is also south of the A2 Watling Street, the Roman road from Dover to London. The nearest train station is at Sole Street, which is on the line to Bromley South and Victoria. This is approx. 2 miles (approx. 35 minutes’ walk) from the wood.

There are some features of potential local archaeological interest in the woodland including a woodbank inside the east boundary of the wood.

The nearby village of Cobham has associations with Charles Dickens, who used to walk in the area. Dickens set part of The Pickwick Papers in The Leather Bottle pub. The wood has recently been renamed Jaggers Wood in homage to Dickens.
