Fine Art Print : Wistmans Wood, Dartmoor
Fine Art Prints From Science Photo Library
Wistmans Wood, Dartmoor
Light rain falling in Wistmans Wood, Dartmoor. This wood is one of three surviving remnants of ancient woodland in Dartmoor. Because of its high-altitude, the trees in the wood have stunted, gnarled growth. The dominant tree species is pedunculate oak (Quercus robur). The floor of the wood is littered with granite boulders, which support the growth of mosses, lichens and liverworts. These boulders, known as clitter, are the product of periglacial weathering during previous Ice Ages. The wood is a National Nature Reserve (NNR) and a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of Wistmans Wood in Dartmoor, as light rain gently falls upon its ancient trees. Situated at a high altitude, this woodland is one of only three remaining remnants of ancient woodland in Dartmoor. The stunted and gnarled growth of the dominant pedunculate oak trees adds to the wood's mystical allure. As you explore this National Nature Reserve and Site of Special Scientific Interest, you will be captivated by the unique ecosystem that thrives within it. The floor of Wistmans Wood is adorned with granite boulders known as clitter, which provide a solid foundation for an array of mosses, lichens, and liverworts to flourish. The geological history behind these boulders is fascinating; they are remnants from periglacial weathering during previous Ice Ages. This combination of ancient trees, moss-covered rocks, and lush vegetation creates a habitat rich in biodiversity. With its humid environment and drizzling rain adding to its ethereal atmosphere, Wistmans Wood truly feels like stepping into another world. This print from Science Photo Library beautifully encapsulates the essence of this remarkable location on Dartmoor's rugged landscape.
