I live about a mile from this place- a favourite walk of mine, half the woods have been fenced of (since 1960s i believe) to allow natural regen the other other is free for all animls/humans to walk through, Its interesting that despite being stunted oaks and 3-400 years old the majority of growth has possible taken place in the last 150 years (according to the notice board in early 1900s the trees wearn't much taller then a man and now they are nearly 5 meters.

Its dead easy,just got to walk out the car park at two bridges & keep the river on your left,maybe half a mile of a tab,going north/north east.

Dont get lost!
