Why it's Wildland

4.7

A council-listed ancient, semi-natural woodland on the edge of West Wickham. Its appeal is the chance to spend time among a woodland landscape rather than visit a built attraction.

Well Wood earns its place through its documented ancient, semi-natural woodland character and its open-common setting. The available information is limited, so specific paths, wildlife and facilities should not be assumed.
