The thoughts and observations of a regular Ridge Wood walker

Early Spring

Bluebells are just pushing their tips into the fresh air, waiting to display their blue flowers, showing that a new season begins. The hazel catkins are also now well advanced.

Winter works are in progress, with trees and hedging being pruned. The green woodpeckers can be seen more frequently in the woods due to the clearing of the undergrowth. This makes all wildlife and fauna easier to see.


The Friends of Ridge Wood are going to plant a wild flower patch at the Quarry Road entrance, to commemorate their tenth anniversary.

Update 22/2/2011
This work has now been completed, scroll down the Events Archive page
