The wood contains about forty species of butterflies making it one of the most important habitats in Britain.

This is one of the quarries here, a part of the former Chinnor Chalk Pit, now flooded and known as Old Kiln Lakes. The lakes are freshwater, but very alkaline, and there was a warning to the public issued in 2012 to not swim in there. It's a striking and moon-like place, looking very dramatic and slightly out-of-this-world. A definite must!

nice wooded area with traditional british forestation.

The ancient Shotover Oak (Quercus robur) fell on 13th of July 2015 after a severe drought, having survived much turmoil including the decimation of the Royal Forest by both Royalist and parliamentary armies in the siege of Oxford 1644-46. The new shoots on the base of its trunk are guarded from rabbits and deer by a chestnut palling fence. Hopefully this ancient oak will rise again in time.

Bernwood Forest is a magnificent woodland and a great place to enjoy butterflies in the warmer months — it even has dedicated trails for this very reason. Made up of Shabbington Wood and Waterperry Wood, it was once part of the Royal Hunting Forest of Bernwood, which has granted the trees here protection for over 700 years.
