Description: Lauderburn Wood is a beautiful conservation habitat combining mixed woodland, open heathered ground and fen areas gently sloping down to a pretty burn flowing the entire length of the south and west boundaries. The trees mainly comprise mixed conifers including spruce, larch and pine as well as groups of broadleaves, all planted from 1990 onwards. The meandering burn is a particularly dominant water feature attracting water wildlife and providing scope to feed a potential pond or small lake in the fen area to the southeast. Good drainage channels lie either side of the burn. Plenty of sheltered and secluded areas exist for camping and further tree plantings to the west of the main group of conifers.

Access for Lauderburn Wood is through the double gates as on the plan at P and then along inside of the stone dyke wall.  The gate giving access directly into Lauderburn Wood is for occasional works access only.
