Lanvean Bottoms

UK Wildlife Trusts

The wetter areas of this woodland are sheltered by a canopy of grey willow and ash, whilst oak and hazel dominate the woodland on drier slopes. Some areas of the site have been coppiced in the past and wet flushes and redundant drainage ditches are scattered throughout. The dormouse finds shelter here as well as other small mammals. The scarlet elf cup, an attractive and edible fungus is found in great abundance throughout the woodland in winter.
