About the reserve

Runfold Wood was once a beech nursery and plantation, but the great storms of 1987 and 1990 damaged or destroyed many of the trees. Now a mixed woodland, young trees have naturally seeded into the open areas created by the storms.

Look and listen out for blackcaps, nuthatches and other woodland birds. The reserve also supports a number of rare invertebrates, important lichens and some particularly rare fungi, as well as the hazel dormouse.
