Edford Wood | Somerset Wildlife Trust
Sadly this broadleaved woodland is badly affected by ash die back. This means that the ash trees are not in good health, they and their limbs are prone to failing and falling. We do not recommend visiting this reserve at the current time. The seasonal footpath, normally open in spring, will remain closed this year.
Harridge Wood | Somerset Wildlife Trust
Sadly this woodland is badly affected by ash die back. This means that the ash trees are not in good health, they and their limbs are prone to failing and falling. We do not recommend visiting this nature reserve at the current time.
Cockles Fields | Somerset Wildlife Trust
The steeply sloping higher ground to the west supports dry grassland species whereas the low damp east side supports a range of waterside plants. Also look out for evidence of Medieval and Roman opencast mining activities which were carried out here.

Hollow Marsh Meadow | Somerset Wildlife Trust
This hay meadow nature reserve offers glorious displays of wild flowers including orchids from spring to mid summer and is a great reminder of how wildlife rich our countryside can be if given a chance. On a warm day it really does throng with life and can be actually quite noisy with the sound of buzzing insects.
King's Castle Wood | Somerset Wildlife Trust
Just a mile south-east of the centre of Wells, this is an ancient semi-natural woodland, made up primarily of ash, hazel and field maple, with planted oak and a fine stand of small-leaved lime. The main woodland is on a flat-topped promontory of the outlying Mendip Hills where an Iron Age fort once stood.
