Stables and Roffe Wood

Situated just to the north east of the Sinnington village Stables & Roffe Wood sits on a gentle south facing slope very prominent in the quiet rural landscape. Located very close to the eastern bank of the River Seven Stables & Roffe Wood forms an important part of a much larger wooded valley complex which is composed of a mixture of semi natural woodland and planted ancient woodland. This complex (although much of it a broken chain) runs for approximately 5km following the river linking through to the north with Cropton Banks (Woodland Trust) and then the vast expanse of Cropton Forest (Forestry Commission). The woodland is surrounded by a mix of farming uses.
