About this wood

Small but packed with interest, Friezland Wood on the Kent-East Sussex border is something of a British rarity, thanks to the unusual rock formations on its western side. Rising out of the highest cliffs of the Weald, the Ardingly Sandstone rock formations are so unusual they have earned part of the site SSSI status and nurtured a rich mixture of lichens, ferns and bryophytes.
