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.
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.
Perry Mead | Somerset Wildlife Trust
Perry Mead is a wonderful flower-rich neutral grassland meadow on the north side of Perry Hill stretching down to the meandering River Cary near Perrys Bridge. The northern and wetter parts of the reserve close to the river are unimproved water meadows with species-rich neutral grassland flora. Mature deciduous hedgerows surround the fields and a short length of wet ditch bisects the northern field and discharges into the River Cary.
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.
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.
Babcary Meadows | Somerset Wildlife Trust
Visiting the species-rich hay meadows of Babcary next to the River Cary in summer is like stepping back in time when meadows like this were a common sight in our countryside.
White Field | Somerset Wildlife Trust
White Field is a small area of unimproved, yet important, species-rich hay meadow together with a small copse. It is a reserve which remains in an area that has largely seen a decline in wildlife due to agricultural intensification.
Great Breach Wood | Somerset Wildlife Trust
Part of a network of SWT reserves in the East Polden Hills, Great Breach Wood is a wonderfully diverse woodland with wildlife rich scrub and many glades and rides.
Cooks Field | Somerset Wildlife Trust
Cooks Field is a flower rich limestone grassland on steep slopes and traditional hay meadows on the higher and flatter ground. It is an important site for grassland butterflies.
Green Down | Somerset Wildlife Trust
One of the best examples of limestone downland and scrub in Somerset. One of the jewels in the crown of this reserve is the Large Blue Butterfly, declared extinct in Britain in 1979, it has since been reintroduced as part of a long term conservation programme.
