Chedworth Woods are a subtle blend of both managed and ancient woodland and a place rich with wildlife of many kinds….Snowdrop, Primrose and Bluebell carpet the floor in Springtime and proliferations of Wild Strawberry and Wild Violet punctuate the greenery throughout the Summer. The sound of roding Woodcock at dusk and dawn in June and the chance to glimpse Nightjar during a late Summer or early Autumn sunset before they migrate for the Winter make the area popular with local wildlife enthusiasts, while modest herds of itinerant Fallow Deer and small family groups of Roe Deer add their own kind of magic to what , for many visitors, is a very special place.
A collection of my thoughts and experiences.
