A small experimental plantation, the Ayres plantation sits within the island's only National Nature Reserve
This was an experimental plantation of just 1 hectare. It was planted in 1967 and it sits within the island's only National Nature Reserve. It is a popular site for roosting owls. Its use now is purely for academic interest.
