Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This is a spatial dataset that describes the geographic extent and location of ancient woodland habitat in England (excluding the Isles of Scilly). Ancient woodland is land that has had a continuous woodland cover since at least 1600 AD. It includes Ancient Semi-Natural Woodland (ASNW), which retains a native tree and shrub cover, Plantation on Ancient Woodland Sites (PAWS) where the original tree cover has been felled and replaced by planting, often with conifers, or Ancient Wood Pasture (AWP) where the trees are managed in tandem with a long established tradition of grazing, characteristically with at least some veteran trees or shrubs.In total 53,637 polygons were captured, covering approximately 364971.81 Ha. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>O</SPAN><SPAN>ur guidance document can be accessed </SPAN><A href="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/data.defra.gov.uk/Natural_England/Habitat_Species/Habitats/Ancient_Woodland_England_NE/Ancient_Woodland_England_Docs.zip" target="_blank" STYLE="text-decoration:underline;"><SPAN>here</SPAN></A><SPAN>.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Lineage</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Between 1981 and 1982 the Nature Conservancy Council began to compile an inventory of ancient woodland for England and Wales. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>This Ancient Woodland Inventory (AWI) was originally produced on a county basis with reports and paper maps published as they became available.
