About this wood

The Woodland Trust purchased the land from a private owner on the 30th December 1993. Local fundraising contributed £10,000 towards its purchase. The wood is located on the northern boundary of Denby Dale, a West Yorkshire town midway between Huddersfield and Barnsley. The main access lies a short distance up Leak Hall Lane, which leads directly from the A636 Leeds to Denby Dale road, and is within 6 miles of M1 junction 38.
