Part of the Blean complex, the largest ancient woodland in Kent. This part of the Blean is owned by the Kent Wildlife Trust and is mixed woodland. The non native pine plantations are slowly being removed and coppicing takes place in encourage wildlife such as the heath fritilary butterfly and nightingales. New Road runs through the centre of the wood. There is car park off Thornden Wood. The art trail next to the car park is wheelchair accessible. Most of the paths are dirt tracks that get muddy in winter. There are 3 main waymarked tracks, black, green and white, as well as several public footpaths including the Big Blean Walk. Popular area to take the dog or children for a walk. Conservation grazing by konik ponies and Highland cattle in different areas of the woodland so please keep dogs under control.
