Description

Walton Wood lies on the south side of a larger gated wood situated approximately midway between Neilston and Newton Mearns, just west of Darnley Country Park. Junction 4 of the M77 is just 2 miles away giving easy access from Ayrshire, Glasgow and the Central Belt.

The majority of the wood is on level or gently undulating ground and for the most part is stocked by well-spaced full-canopy sycamore dotted with occasional birch, larch and rowan dating from the late 1970s. A row of mature beech trees line the northern boundary.

The woodland floor is very open - mostly soft grasses, a variety of wild flowers, ferns and pockets of bluebells. A more open area towards the west side is clad with bracken, but for the most part walking is easy across the woodland floor. A small stream forms an attractive boundary feature on the east side of the property. Walton Wood is surrounded by other woodland to the west, north and east, whilst the south has a bright outlook across open farmland.

The wood is served by a newly constructed hard track enabling cars to directly access the property, so a short drive is all that is needed to swap city streets for green glades.


If It Were Mine

I would fell a few small coupes (good for the log pile) and then restock these areas with a variety of native hardwoods and shrubs. Some landscaping of an open area near the northeast corner would create a great location for camping and recreation.

Directions & Access

From Glasgow head southwest to junction 4 of the M77. Leave the motorway at this junction. At the end of the off-ramp go straight across the first roundabout and then take the third exit at the next roundabout signed B769 for Stewarton.

After 0.6 mile turn right at the next roundabout (second exit) onto Aurs Road and cross the motorway. After 250 metres take the first left onto Stewarton Road and follow for ¾ mile, then turn right onto Glanderston Road immediately before Caldcoats Farm (a conspicuous white house just above the road on the right).

After following Glanderston Road for ¾ mile take a left fork (to stay on Glanderston Road). A further ½ mile on this road brings you to Glanderston Wood which will be on your left hand side after a sharp right hand bend. Continue along the woodland edge for 300 metres until you see double metal gates into the wood on your left. You are now at point A on the plan. Please note we do not give out keys for viewing.

Please park clear of the gates and walk up the hill on the hard track for about 200 metres to just past the top of the rise, and then turn first right. You are now at the east corner of Walton Wood (midway between points B and C on the plan).


Boundaries

The northwest boundary (FG) is indicated by a line of yellow-topped posts.

The northeast boundary (GBC) is an old stone dyke indicated periodically by blue-topped posts.

The east boundary (CD) is marked by a line of white-topped posts. From D to E the actual boundary is the centre line of the stream (with the indicator posts offset to one side).

The southwest boundary (EF) is the field-edge stone dyke.
