10Creation, etc., of new ornamental woods
(1)The verderers may on a presentment authorise the Forestry Commissioners to enclose any part of the open waste lands of the Forest for the purpose of creating new ornamental woods therein and of preserving and regenerating them from time to time and to carry out in enclosures made by virtue of this section such forestry operations as appear to them to be requisite:
Provided that no one enclosure made by virtue of this section shall exceed twenty acres in area and the total area of land enclosed under this section shall not exceed five hundred acres.
(2)Any enclosure made by virtue of this section shall be laid open so soon as the verderers with the agreement of the Forestry Commissioners determine that to do so will not prejudice the purposes for which the enclosure was made.
(3)For the purposes of giving effect to the requirements of section 8 of the New Forest Act 1877 that the ancient and ornamental woods in the Forest shall be preserved, the Forestry Commissioners shall after consultation with the verderers carry out in the unenclosed parts of those woods all such silvicultural maintenance works as may from time to time be necessary.
