Leigham Woods County Wildlife Site

Leigham Woods County Wildlife Site

Leigham Wood is located in the east of Plymouth just north of the Marsh Mills Retail Park. The 5ha site is owned and managed by The Woodland Trust and is accessible to the public. This site consists predominantly of broadleaved woodland.

The site is designated as a County Wildlife Site because part of the area is registered on the Ancient Woodland Inventory, supporting more-or-less semi-natural woodland. 20 ancient woodland indicator species have been identified within the ground flora including barren strawberry, wild cherry, field-rose, crab apple and hairy wood-rush.

For more information about Leigham Wood visit The Woodlands Trust website. If you have visited the site please send in your photographs and we will put the best on this site.
