Blackenford Brook

This section was Blackenford Brook was one of the first stretches of stream I can remember being remodeled as part of the wet woodland restoration program. It was some years ago now and the woodland has healed well, looking more natural every year. When they altered the brooks course, the trees were also thinned, creating a far more open environment, developing a type pastoral woodland which was once common in the forest and maintained through grazing. It's an area where you can just sit awhile and watch the forest go by; time well spent.
