Description

Warley Wood is located half a mile south of the village of Leaden Roding and a short distance from the historic town of Great Dunmow in rural Essex and is accessed through a locked gate.

Situated over level loamy lime clay soils, the mature canopy in the southern section comprises majestic oak standards, hornbeam, ash and birch with occasional hazel coppice below. Towards the centre of the woodland is an area of young hazel, hornbeam, birch, willow and ash approaching thicket stage, providing a welcome refuge for the local wildlife. Western and northern parts of the woodland consist of older hornbeam, poplar, oak, ash and willow with hawthorn and hazel in the shrub layer. Come spring and summer, the ground layer is brimming with Ancient Woodland indicators such as bluebell, wood anemones, primrose and dog’s mercury.

There are a number of grassy patches throughout the woodland that if strimmed would serve as lovely camping spots. Far reaching farmland views are enjoyed from the northern boundary.  

Mammals including muntjac, roe and fallow deer, wood mouse, badger, fox and hare are frequently spotted making their way amongst the stems. The tranquil location attracts countless feathered visitors including owl, woodpecker, greenfinch and an array of harmonious songbirds.


If It Were Mine

Cutting a few paths through the younger area of woodland would make a great nature trail for children to explore. Bushcraft would be high on my list of activities, along with ‘leave no trace’ camping weekends in the warmer weather. Some logs would definitely be stacked and left to season for the burner at home.

Please remember some management operations require approval and/or a licence.
