Wenlock's Wood. The road to faerie

[cmcmck]

Most of the ancient forest we have here in north Shropshire is oak woodland with birch and rowan on the higher hills.

I grew up in the southeastern county of Kent where, being downland, a lot of the woodland is chestnut and chestnut woodland provides the finest displays of bluebells anywhere in England.

Locally, we have the chestnut woodland known as Wenlock's Wood and this year's bloom has been magical!































I'm only sorry I can't share the scent with you!

It's a nice spot at any time, but especially now.
