OUZLEWELL GREEN

Description : This is a young woodland planted with mixed broadleaves (ash, oak, sycamore, cherry and field maple) and a woody shrub edge of hazel, hawthorn, dog rose and guelder rose. It includes areas of meadow, a water side habitat with a newly planted community orchard and a hawthorn hedgerow bordering a children's playground.

As this woodland develops it will create a significant landscape feature, complimenting the adjacent mature Bushy Cliffe Wood (privately owned) and providing a valuable area for informal recreation in a pleasant rural environment.

Of special interest is the presence of two male native
black poplar trees on the banks of Dolphin Beck.

Access and facilities : No public access to young plantation at present. A Public Footpath, however, links Ouzlewell Green village with Bushy Cliffe Wood, passing close to the northern edge of the plantation.
