OUTSIDE
Abertairnant has an extensive road frontage and benefits from a separate
gate access for agricultural vehicles with hardstanding’s and a purpose-
built tractor shed. The land is divided into several large field enclosures
principally laid down to flower meadows suitable for summer grazing
and cropping.
In circa 2010, the land leading down towards the river were extensively
planted with over 1600 native trees to provide a coppice and woodland.
Now maturing it contains a mixture of up to 13 species providing a
mixture of native woodland trees through which a beautiful woodland
walk was created which follows the contours of the land towards a
secluded glade and purpose built timber framed cabin, ‘The Fallen Ewe’.
It is an idyllic setting with something to enjoy in all seasons with a
profusion of native plants and bulbs and is a lovely place to while-away
summer evenings.
Just beyond the land slopes steeply down into the valley of the River
Terrig which forms the eastern boundary of the property. It is an area
with a wealth of natural fauna and a haven for wildlife.
