Treetops Shooting Ground, Clay pigeon shooting ground in Coedkernew, Wales, United Kingdom
Treetops Shooting Ground is a shooting facility in Coedkernew with two open-range rifle bays, a large netted enclosure, and dedicated areas for clay pigeon shooting across approximately 38 acres of land. The venue provides shooting opportunities at different stations designed for both air rifles and shotguns.
The site was once part of Lord Tredegar's estate and featured a lake built to supply water to the noble residence in the region. This connection shows how the former private grounds were transformed into a public shooting facility.
The facility regularly hosts competitions between university clay shooting clubs from Cardiff, Bristol, and Bath, fostering regional sporting connections.
The facility is open daily and provides professional instruction for beginners and experienced shooters at all stations. Visitors should book in advance and wear appropriate clothing and sturdy footwear, as the terrain has varying elevations.
The venue features a Hunter Field Target course with around 30 knock-down targets, plans to expand to double the capacity in the near future. This shooting discipline differs from clay pigeon shooting and simulates realistic hunting scenarios.
