Description

Glion Gill is on the western slopes of Greeba Mountain in the Isle of Man

 

Glion Gill is a series of woodland blocks planted between 1990 and 1993 on the western slopes of Greeba Mountain.  They are served by a new forest road linking all the areas and providing access to the hill for the grazing tenant.  The combined area of 227 hectares makes this the largest block of commercial plantation on the island.  It consists mainly of Sitka Spruce, Hybrid Larch and Corsican Pine.
