The majority of this land was bequeathed to the Woodland Trust in 1992 http://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/en/our-woods/pages/wood-details.aspx?wood=4510&site=linnets-wood#.UgdgcZKmjNt. Although some tree planting had begun as early as 1973 a large proportion of this former agricultural land was planted up in 1997/8 as part of the Trusts "Woods On Your Doorstep Scheme" see also http://www.wildessex.net/sites/Linnets%20Wood.htm
