What it's like

A good-sized woodland of about 52 acres, with 1.6 miles of paths. There's no water for a swim. It's usually firm underfoot: the ground is mostly chalk, which drains well but can be slippery when wet. Most of it is woodland, so there's plenty of shade. A public road runs through it, so take care near the road. There's no public car park nearby that we know of.
