We're creating a new Coronation Wood at East Worth, in Devon, to commemorate the Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III. The 29.8-hectare woodland is near the village of Northlew. The woodland at East Worth is an important part of the work that we're doing at Forestry England to expand the nation’s forests, and will be created through the Nature for Climate Fund.
Work in progress at East Worth
The new woodland will be a valuable place for timber, wildlife and local communities. The land has been planted with tree species chosen to match local soil types and expected future climate conditions. The landscape design aims to improve the site for nature conservation.
You can see the final designs of the woodland, along with feedback, here.
Fencing and planting of the new woodland was completed in spring 2025, we will continue managing the site as these young trees grow.
