Armstrong Wood

UK Wildlife Trusts

Armstrong Wood is a diverse nature reserve located in Cornwall, featuring a mix of oak woodland, grassland, and wetland habitats. The terrain includes a footpath that can be steep and challenging at times, making it essential to contact the Trust for information on disabled access. The reserve is particularly noted for its traditional hay meadows, which burst into life with vibrant flowers and insects during the summer months. Wildlife enthusiasts can look forward to spotting the silver-washed fritillary butterfly, the largest of its kind in Cornwall, particularly during the warmer months. Otters are also known to frequent the river and leats within the reserve. While specific sightings data is limited, summer visits promise a lively display of flora and fauna, making it an ideal time to explore this beautiful area.
