  • Enter a new world: Look closely and see butterflies, moths, insects, birds and mammals. New woods - new life!
  • Summer walks and adventure: Time to get outdoors! Head to the woods for dappled paths, shady walks, tree climbing, den building and more.

About this wood

The majority of the site was purchased by the Woodland Trust on the 3/4/95 with substantial contributions made by the Countryside Commission and local support. The site was extended in 26/03/2003 by a further 4.98Ha through a land swap with the Forestry Commission, which gave the Trust the adjacent mature partially ancient woodland of Miller Hill and Wigfield Woods.
