Gillshaw & Dummyrig Woods is a substantial freehold woodland holding totalling 52.54 hectares (129.82 acres) in rural Dumfries & Galloway, presented as a commercial forestry and land investment. The woods were largely restocked after recent harvesting (2023/24), with approximately 70% Sitka spruce and a mix of Lodgepole pine; estimated yield class 12–16 indicates sensible potential for future timber income.
The two adjoining blocks have established vehicular access from designated timber haulage routes (U231A and U232A) and include internal stacking and short ride-ways. Gillshaw contains an attractive pond and areas of continuous cover, adding biodiversity and amenity value. Sporting rights are included, and mineral rights are included insofar as retained by the seller.
Buyers should note the remote, rural setting: local services and amenities are limited and the area is classified as a remoter community with a very deprived local area score. Boundaries are stock-fenced with maintenance shared with the neighbour, and the titles will be sold subject to existing rights and burdens. Interested parties are advised to carry out their own searches for designations and to consider ongoing management requirements.
This holding will suit commercial forestry investors, conservation-minded purchasers or those seeking a large, private rural estate with active management history. The property has been professionally managed with records available; the woods offer clear operational advantages for timber extraction and replanting, but they will require continued forestry management to realise cropping and amenity value.
