The purpose of this paper is to record for the wide range of sites the Forestry Commission has restored in Wales, the methods used and the successes and failures of the plantings, the objectives of which have varied from timber production to pure landscape planting. The Paper is intended as guidance to those who may wish to plant on comparable sites, and also to record the site factors, history, treatments and early growth while this information is still available from written records, and from the memories of the foresters involved, and by the survey of their condition during 1974-5.
