Spring Wood is an ancient woodland, a County Wildlife Site and a Local Nature Reserve. Forming the heart of the Belstead Brook Park, it is adjacent to Millennium Wood LNR, Bobbits Lane LNR and the threatened Kiln Meadow.. As well as the wide range of native tree species for such a relatively small wood, it is important for its spring flowers: first Anemones and then Bluebells, Red Campion, Stitchwort, and Wood Spurge can produce some impressive displays. It also provides habitat for a wide range of birds and animals including Nightingales, Weasels and a huge colony of toads.
