A great place a walk with the kids. Made a massive den house from branches. Water very low on the pond.
Beautiful small shaded wood. Easy under foot. Fascinating to see how mature a wood is after only 19 years.
Really tranquil, beautiful little hidden gem. It's only small but lovely.
Beautiful place for a walk and a relax. Lots of wildlife to be seen and the pond is surrounded by silence except the occasional car going by but that's rare.
Great place for bit of peace and quiet.
