About us

Hob Hey Wood Friends group was set up to look after Hob Hey Wood, ensuring it remains a beautiful place for both people and the wildlife that lives there.

Anyone can join the group: all are welcome.

Management Plan

There is a five year management plan in place for Hob Hey Wood. This is designed to protect the structure of the woodland,improve the biodiversity, native species composition and encourage public access by use of pathways only.

History

Today, Hob Hey Wood is a small area of woodland set in the valley of a small stream, surrounded by farmland. Hundreds of years ago, things were very different.

On January 16th we felled some trees and used the wood to build a huge habitat pile.

We also pruned the fruit trees in the orchard.
