This ancient woodland is a haven for nature lovers and history enthusiasts alike. The wood is home to a variety of flora and fauna, including rare species of orchids, butterflies, and birds. The site is also dotted with remnants of its industrial past, including old pit shafts and spoil heaps, a testament to the area's former life as a coal mining hub. A network of walking trails crisscrosses the wood, offering visitors a chance to explore the area's natural beauty and rich history.
Easy parking and a lovely walk on a Winter's morning earlier this week. Highly recommended and a beautiful place.
Lovely picturesque walks through reclaimed coal mining land. Paths look suitable for mobility scooters, powered wheelchairs and cycles. My dogs loved it.
