About this wood

The site comprises a copse planted within a small, roughly square, field surrounded by boundary banks. The size of this field and presence of the boundary banks may indicate that the site is of prehistoric origin or the site of an unrecorded ancient monument. The woodland was planted by children from Brockweir Primary School in 1984. Approximately 100 trees were planted including ash, pedunculate oak, wild cherry, small leaved lime (of unknown origin) and field maple. Further trees and shrubs have developed at the site through natural regeneration and the copse is now a feature of the local landscape.
