These ancient woods, covering an area of 1,000 acres, are a treasure trove of natural beauty and history. The woods are home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, including many rare and endangered species. The landscape is characterized by rolling hills, steep valleys, and sparkling streams, creating a picturesque scenery that is perfect for walking, hiking, and exploring. The woods are also dotted with ancient monuments, including the remains of a medieval castle and a 12th-century church, adding to their historical significance. Visitors can follow several waymarked trails, including the 10-mile Waresley Woods Way, which takes you on a journey through the woods' most stunning landscapes.
Several 'so called' conservation efforts have left the majority of the wooands in a state of disrepair and devastation. However the woodlands are a pleasant place to walk as long as the local game shoot does not kick you out of publicly accessible areas. A lovely woodland ruined by local politicking and grievances.
