hiya, :)

this meet we will be at upper north wood, (farm end) parking will be on CP1. those who want to can drop off their gear (see map link below) and return their car to CP1.

ok as before, just a reminder of terms and directions.

recently we have had to increase the fees more or less in line with comparible sites. after discussion with Gordon, (the farmer) it has been agreed that the new fees will now be £5 per person per night. this will be pegged for hopefully the next 18 months.

the other important change is going to be, after discussion with 'North Wood Regulars', the introduction of a communal fire.

we feel in order to maintain our supply of free wood it is imperative that we act now. North Wood is gaining in popularity and what none of us want, is to end up in a year or so with a sterile wood. you have left your pitches in impeccable order, no blame is to be attached to yourselves but with anything up to 30 individual fires whether for warmth or cooking, stocks will rapidly dwindle.

To ensure the future of North Wood as a wild camping/bushcraft venue, and to ensure the continuing stocks for the communal areas, the following conditions strictly apply:

•If you want to bring in your own Honey Stoves, hobo stoves, twig/small stick burners and the like, they are acceptable, providing they have sufficient ground clearance or protection to prevent scaring. Pit fires or similar are not acceptable.

•Modified jerry can (or similar) stoves, tent/tipi/lavvu stoves and the like are not acceptable unless you bring a sufficient amount of fuel for your needs for the duration of the meet.

If you require clarification on what is acceptable, drop me a pm.

Wood collected and processed during the course of the meet (aside from small stick/twig matter) is for use in the communal area so that everyone benefits, or in some cases for the use of the farmer.
This is not negotiable, and no blind eyes will be turned for individuals failing to comply with these simple restrictions.

with all the dead wood to hand, i know its going to be tempting to carry on using it for individual fires, i'm hoping this is going to be self regulating however if individuals blatantly ignore this, they will not be invited back.

I hope I have explained my motives for these actions clearly. They have been put in place to ensure the longevity of North Wood as a venue.

were still here on trial so it really is a case of leaving no junk / firescars etc. the only thing we should leave is a good impression, take your rubbish home, there are no facilitys to leave it on the farm. this also applies to leaving rubbish at someone else’s pitch to deal with. If you brought it in, it’s up to you to dispose of it. Too many times others have carted someone else’s trash out. No exceptions, no excuses.
this is a private site, a farmer who i know and who has trusted me, anyone who jeopardises this goodwill will not be invited back. live wood is to be left untouched. under 18s to be accompanied by a parent or guardian, guests or minors will be the responsibility of the person who bought them, a small section on the approach to north wood is sssi, unless otherwise instructed this will be marked and out of bounds, as will a small area adjacent to it which is personal to the farmer, see map link. the gate from the farm into the meadow must be kept closed at all times, if you open it you close it, ok happy head back on!

fees are a reasonable £5 per head per night, pay on arrival access is from 1200, unless we have made prior arrangements to get in earlier. for security reasons the electronic gates will be closed overnight and all day sunday, codes will be given out nearer the meet, possible late arrivals feel free to pm me for gate code. we will aim to vacate site no later than 1400.

location is opposite the belfry golf club on the A4091, OS map ref' SP189962 for those arriving early there is a large layby opposite the entrance, full address is;

Middleton House Farm
Tamworth Road
Middleton,
Tamworth
North warwickshire
B78 2BD

the fields on the approach to the wood are sometimes hired out to a private company. if on arrival there is any activity on the meadow between the car park and the wood, and you need to unload your vehicle, keep to the track, proceed with caution with hazards on at 15mph. and finally for those not familiar with north wood, this link (http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=210284968795140843595.000 49740325e102c13d9d&t=h&z=16) may help...

hi martin, seeing as were in the top end of the wood im thinking it could do with a little tidy up? theres plenty of prospective pitches to be had with some thoughtfull clearing of brash. plenty of opportunities to try out our sharps! :) entirely voluntary of course. oh and theres that other little bridge that was discussed too...

hiya,
there seems to be some confusion amongst some of the NW attendees regarding fires, pitching and rubbish removal. with advise, i have ammended post 1 to further highlight the basic rules of the site.

those who have already added their names to our forthcoming meet, please re-aquaint yourselves with post 1. if you then feel you are unable to attend, then by all means remove your name. i'm hoping though that this won't be the case :D

Steve,

Not at all mate, it is Gordon's wood and you have gained the permission to use it.

Both you and he are very generous to allow us to use it.

Not at all mate I think in fairness given the increasing popularity of North Wood and the fact that these restrictions are in no way pinching the joy out of using the place I think it is a fair approach to take.

It would be a great shame to lose this place as a meet venue because it was becoming denuded with over use.

I think I echo what everyone else is saying here.

as the NW regulars know, theres a lot of coppiced hazel dotted all over the wood. gordon has no use for it so to add to our list of projects/activities, how about we make some hurdles? they will be usefull as windbreaks around the communal fire of a night and we could stash them on site. any thoughts?

steve

are hurdles like windbreaks? scuse my ignorance steve. ive got a new chopper i'm raring to try out so i'm up for anything. thats sounds dodgy but you know what i mean :)

woodspirits

02-06-2011, 23:12

hi simon,
yes mate i know what you mean, but dont mention it to cliff! ;)

hurdles were a traditional form of cheap stock fencing amongst many other uses, very light and portable with natural materials readily available. superceded now by soulless materials or electric wire!

woodspirits

11-06-2011, 09:41

morning all :)

had a wander in nw yesterday having spoken with the farmer previously, i went to see the results of his work. apparently there used to be a track dissecting the lower part of the wood east to west, its been overgrown for years and it was decided to re-open it. it runs from the lower wood drop off point and joins the perimeter path the other side, see map link post 1.

what it has done is let a little more light in and made possible pitches more accessible either side of the track, it also runs alongside a potentially nice pool that few will have seen before.
just thought i'd let you know how things are progressing :)

woodspirits

13-06-2011, 20:14

for those of you that aren't aware, theres a few little projects for this and future meets, no doubt this list will expand as we go on! all entirely voluntary of course, i realise that some of you will just want to enjoy the woodland and explore its potential, :) but for those who enjoy a bit more hands on...

first up is another rustic bridge to be built, this time its to connect CP2 with upper north wood pitches. nothing too elaborate, just a couple of logs across a ditch.

next is a bit of clearing work, this is to improve our existing pitches at the upper north wood and expand it.

with all this available wood to hand, martin suggested we smoke a few fish with it!

as mentioned in an earlier post, all the coppiced hazel is just the right size for making hurdles with. usefull as wind breaks, shelter building etc...

there are one or two places on the perimeter path that gets a little soggy in the winter months. this can be easily put right by burying a pipe under the path allowing the wet areas to drain.

well there you go, as i said all voluntary, all as and when we feel like it, no pressure just an alternative for when you get fed up with fondling your shiney's... or whatever :D
