The Friends of Bourne Wood

www.friendsofbournewood.org.uk

Bourne Wood is a quiet ancient woodland with mixed conifers and semi-natural broadleaf trees.

A sculpture trail takes walkers past a number of sculptures crafted by both resident artists and local school children
over a number of years. This trail takes visitors up to the ponds where kingfishers and herons can often be seen.

The wood is being gradually restored to native broadleaf woodland under the
'Ancient Woodland Project'.

The Friends of Bourne Wood help to look after the wood and organise regular events throughout the year

Next event:

Weaving the Willow Sculpture

Date to be arranged

BOURNE WOOD UNDER THREAT AGAIN

SKDC has issued the next planning proposals for consultation. There are only two sites for Bourne - one of which is the fields from North Road up to the wood. It also includes part of the wood encompassing the area from the first stile up the main ride from Beech Ave to Wood Lane

The Friends of Bourne Wood wood like to thank all those who campaigned to save the woods especially Quentin Davies and his team plus many others who passionately opposed these plans
