This wood may be small but it's one of the most atmospheric parts of Blacka. It has disadvantages, proximity to the road and being surrounded by rhododendron, but it easily rises above them. In fact the circlet of the alien evergreen seems to protect it from the road not just by distance but by years. It may not be ancient but there's a great sense of mystery here. The tree above is an Arthur Rackham one, best not met on a dark night.
Progress here should be slow or wildlife may be disturbed.
