Barrow Hill Local Nature Reserve

Barrow Hill is the site of 315 million year old volcano. It is one of the most significant and well-loved areas of green space in the Borough. It supports the Boroughs largest and most diverse area of grassland, ancient woodland, ponds with populations of Great Crested Newt and other important habitats and species. The area is of high recreational and amenity value and is linked to both the Fens Pools area and the Staffordshire countryside via the Pensnett Railway Walk.
