Hollins Wood

Meadow brown

 

Hollins Wood is broadleaved plantation of Hazel, Oak, Norway Maple, Silver Birch and Alder with coniferous trees. It was also the site of a small pox hospital shown by overgrown brick foundations. Coppiced trees such as Hazel, creates sunny glades for butterflies like Speckled Wood. Wood from coppicing and felling is left to create habitat piles for wildlife. The adjoining field was planted up in 2012 and named Jubilee Woodland.
