Bracher's Wood

Donated to the Trust by Kettering Borough Council as part of an A14 landscaping scheme. It is highly visible from the A14 and the Rothwell Road. Planted up entirely by local volunteers with 350 native broadleaved trees (ash, field maple, wild cherry, crab apple, willow and a mix of shrubs). The wood is maturing into recognisable young woodland but still in places retains a ground flora associated with its previous use as an allotment -rank grasses, rhubarb, etc.
