The land is planted predominantly as a Sitka spruce plantation with a narrow band of sycamore and oak along the front. Growth has been good and will provide a substantial crop of timber in due course.

Very few people come into these woods allowing wildlife to flourish, especially the deer population and bird population. The most common deer are Roe and Fallow and are a lot smaller than Red deer. With a lack of natural predators deer populations have greatly increased in recent times.

One of the main features of this woodland is the area of blanket bog that stretches out beyond the plantation. This is part of what is known as the Flow Country and is the largest blanket bog in Europe. It is an area of deep peat, dotted with bog pools and a very important habitat for wildlife, as well as climate change mitigation. Peat is largely made up of the remains of plants, which are themselves made up of carbon; it locks up large stores of carbon for thousands of years. This carbon would otherwise be released to the atmosphere and contribute to global warming. The Flow Country is currently being considered as a potential World Heritage Site on account of its unparalleled blanket bog habitat. Closer examination shows a real diversity with a richness of insect life providing the perfect habitat for many rare bird species, including greenshank, dunlin, merlin and golden plover.

There is direct access off the public road with a track leading up to the old croft and there are wayleaves crossing the plantation However the plantation itself is fairly dense through good growth but trails could be established fairly easily, perhaps as part of a harvesting or thinning program.

All sporting rights are sold with the woodland.

As is the case for all our meadows, the purchaser will be asked to enter into a covenant which serves to protect the peace and quiet of the meadow.

This is a very diverse habitat with the potential timber income stream that would allow the area to be transformed, whether as a small holding or nature area.

The woods at Olgrinmore sit ia a fairly remote part of the country on the edge of the Flow Country nestled between Westerdale and Scotscalder. The railway station at Scotscalder boasts the reputation as the least used station in the UK! Caithness has a low population with only two towns, Thurso and Wick but many very small settlements. The low population has encouraged wildlife to flourish both at sea and on the rivers with otters and seals inhabiting small islands on the nearby River Thurso. This area was a Pictish stronghold until the Norwegian Norsemen arrived from the 10th century onwards establishing settlements all along the coast.
