Small mixed-woodland reserve with winding paths, ponds and scrub — great for intimate woodland scenes, reflections, seasonal colour (spring bluebells, autumn leaves), and modest birdlife. Free entry from Preston Rd; roadside parking nearby but limited. Best at dawn for mist and quiet, or golden hour for warm side-lighting; muddy in wet weather so wear boots.
