Why it's Wildland
5.1A riverside patchwork of woodland and wetland on the edge of London, with a nature reserve landscape popular with walkers, riders and nature lovers.
Ham Lands earns its place for its riverside mix of woodland and wetland habitats within London, rather than for a single headline attraction. The council describes diverse plant and animal life, but the supplied research does not establish particular species, a recommended circuit or visitor facilities.
