A small woodland (1.5 hectares) of ash, oak and sycamore with some field maple coppice. The ground flora is reasonably diverse with a range of typical species such as primrose, lords-and- ladies, herb-Robert, bluebell and male fern. The wood, although not appearing in English Nature's Ancient Woodland Inventory may be of considerable antiquity as it supports a diverse ground flora including early purple and twayblade orchids and sanicle. The woodland is also important for shelter and breeding sites for invertebrates and birds in an area with very little woodland indeed. A smaller area (1.2 hectares) of damp scrub lies adjacent to the wood providing habitat diversity to the wood. Additional species recorded for this area are crosswort, brooklime, greater knapweed and kingcup.
