Our story
We became custodians of 16-acre Myrtle Wood - part of a larger ancient woodland - in March 2020. Since then we have been busy clearing and improving access tracks, controlling rhododendron and reintroducing the traditional rural crafts of coppicing and charcoal making.
Wildlife
Bee foraging a wood anemone
We share Myrtle Wood with all sorts of creatures and critters - including foxes, deer, woodpeckers, buzzards, owls, beetles and bees.
Flora
One of the best displays of bluebells in the area
First come the primrose and wood anemone - then celandine, bluebell, dog violet, honeysuckle and foxglove.
