Hardwick Wood County Wildlife Site

Hardwick Wood is located in the east of Plymouth, just south of Plympton and north of the A38. The 22.4ha site is owned and managed by The Woodland Trust and is accessible to the public. This site is an ancient semi-natural woodland sculptured by natural events such as storms. The site has been disturbed with the planting of non-native species, but does contain oak, ash and beach. The site has a number of rides and paths that run through the woodland.

The site is designated as a County Wildlife Site because of the presence of 17 ancient woodland indicator species including wood millet, wild cherry, field rose and wych elm. For more information about Hardwick 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.
