A very small wooded area with an amazing amount of bird life. Spent an hour in there with 14 species seen, including Britain's smallest bird, the Goldcrest
This trail and the nature reserve really is "covert." It's worth the hunt for the parking as the trail is wide and well-kept, used to be a railway. Note that there is no parking near the School Ln overpass, you'll need to start at either end if driving by car.
Good for dog walking.
Nice walk through and walks either side the penine trail And canal rain or shine kids love walking in this
Lovely walk
Good place
