On behalf of Mid-Deeside Community Trust, RTS Forestry, are in the process of renewing the Long-Term Forest Plan for Bell Wood and Lady Wood, Aboyne. This will be an updated 20-year plan detailing the silvicultural management proposal for the first 10 years and an outline of the following 10. Prior to preparing the plan we would like to invite you to address any queries you may have as the local community. Through this consultation we hope all the important factors affecting the management of the woods can be brought to our attention and can be incorporated in the plans where relevant.
Details of the initial proposals for the plan are shown below in the Scoping Maps. A guide to the scoping map is also below with definitions of the terminology used. We would be grateful if you could give these documents your attention and respond to This email address is being protected from spambots.

The below information will be posted to residents directly neighbouring the woodlands and information boards will also be installed at woodland entrances.
Thank you for your co-operation, I look forward to hearing from you.
