Geography
The area is a mixed woodland area designated as "planted ancient woodland",[1] and combined with Forge Valley Woods is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).[2]
There are many paths, tracks and bridleways through the small woods which many residents of Scarborough use for mountain biking, dog walking and Sunday strolls. Throxenby Mere, a popular place for angling, is located at the foot of the woods.
Deer, badgers, squirrels, frogs, toads, foxes and all kinds of birds can be seen in the woods.
