    Hiking

    In this pretty forest area the trees were used for timber production. Iron was mined. Iron hammers were used to work metal on streams using water power.

    Hiking

    The Culvert has recently been restored but its age remains a mystery. It was certainly built to allow heavy loads to cross, which could suggest a connection with the Wealden iron industry in Tudor and early Stuart times. However it could be much older, perhaps dating to Roman times.

    Running

    It's a pleasure to run through this ancient woodland. There are many tree species, but sweet chestnut and hornbeam are particularly abundant.
