tbh I'm mostly curious as to whether it is this patch of woodland I rode through recently *– it was a bit weird but also pretty amazing, the bridleway was fenced in so most of the woodland was totally inaccessible. I have my issues with the way land ownership is often administrated, but I also definitely like to see the properly managed habitat from an appropriate distance
- Near Pulborough, east of Bedham I think

Northeast of Hastings so that's a no! It's not exactly mastiffs with loaded shotguns, but visitors are not encouraged. As there are no rights of way close to the boundaries it would be difficult to argue an innocent mistake.
There are many shooting estates around here (this is not one) where visitors are ACTIVELY discouraged, they tend to be the estates best managed for wildlife with incredible remnants of ancient forest.

Hahahaha I can imagine how well it’ll go down if you’re caught trespassing private woodland down in Sussex if my land-owning grandad and his mates down there are anything to go by!!
I’m sure there’s plenty of lovely woodland that doesn’t result in someone’s dogsbody setting a Doberman on you....
*for the record I don’t really believe in the private ownership of land but such is life. As mentioned above tho it’s usually far better managed so tends to look ace.
I used to do hedgelaying and coppice work over Tring way somewhere for some poshos that owned a ton of land rover dealerships.
Beautiful land, properly managed using traditional techniques.
Sadly they were fucking pricks for lots of other reasons.
