The Dingle is an ancient woodland site which was partly landscaped in the past with formal paths and a lake. Whilst the lake has gone, a number of exotic species remain, including copper beech. These, together with the small brook, slightly remote location and low visitor numbers, make it a particularly beautiful and peaceful place to visit.
The 325-yard linear path through the wood tends to get wet in sections throughout the year. A steep drop by the gate means that parking there needs care.
This wood is just one of many to have been protected by gifts in wills, securing it for generations to come. Your legacy gift could also make a real difference to woods, trees and wildlife.
