About this property
A bluebell broadleaved woodland in the Chilterns.
Pocket's Piece Wood is a wood renowned for its bluebells that carpet the forest floor in spring. Combined with the nature of the trees and the wider landscape setting this makes the wood very photogenic. The woodland is in the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is also an Ancient and Semi Natural Woodland, indicating that there has been woodland cover at this location since pre-1600.
