About this wood

Reach Wood was planted in a single day by volunteers from the nearby villages of Reach and Swafham Prior. The 3,200 young trees on this former arable field forms part of an initiative to create new woodland in England’s least wooded county. Wide, sweeping rides around the site lead to an open meadow that was sown with chalk-loving plant seed and is backed by a striking backdrop of steep chalk cliffs.
