Considered to be one of the finest woods in Suffolk for its plant life. Notable trees include hornbeam and the rarest of all native trees, the wild pear. Plant life includes several species of orchid. Listen out for the song of the nightingale.
Priestley Wood is one of our top ten bluebell woods. Mid-April to early-June is usually an ideal time to visit for a great display.
Please note: There is no parking available at the wood - visitors are advised to park on the roads in the village and walk from there.
