Martinshaw Wood might be one of the woods mentioned in the Domesday Book as lying within the Manor of Groby. By the 13th century, the wood was established as a wooded enclosure in a deer park. The estate sold timber to the local economy and quarrying and later planted the site with conifers. The woodland was clear felled in the early 20th century before it was taken over by the Forestry Commission in 1950. Between 1954 and 1969 the Forestry Commission planted species of both native and exotic broadleaves and conifers the woodland as a commercial plantation. The Woodland Trust purchased the site in 1986 and we’ve been restoring it to its former glory ever since Music....
