Small ancient woodland with meandering paths, ponds and wet ditches offering intimate nature scenes: reflections, fungi, wildflowers (bluebells in spring) and songbirds. No entry fee; accessible from Lakewood Rd with limited street parking and local bus links. Best visited at dawn or golden hour for soft light and mist; spring and autumn offer strongest color and wildlife activity. Ground can be muddy—wear boots; some paths are narrow.
