COUNTRYSIDE - Woodlands and copses

Description:
One of four ancient woodlands in Haringey. These woods are thought to be the direct descendants of the original wild wood, which covered most of Britain about five thousand years ago. The wood is an ancient oak-hornbeam woodland. Today English oak and occasional beech stand above hornbeam, midland hawthorn, hazel, mountain ash, field maple, cherry, holly and both species of lowland birch. The scarce wild service tree is scattered throughout the wood. The ground flora is particularly rich for somewhere so close to central London. It includes a large population of wood anemone, native bluebells, wood goldilocks and a thriving population of wood sorrel. See separate entry for details of the cafe.
