Abbots Wood

The historic site of Abbots Wood derives its name from the times of Henry I, when the wood was gifted to Battle Abbey and overseen by the Abbot.. A mixture of tree species, including conifer, hazel and hornbeam can be found. Go for a wander along Abbots Amble to view waterfowl and dragonfly on the lake or take a short stroll on Oaks Walk. Look out a variety of wildlife, including rarer species such a Dormice and Pearl Bordered Fritillaries, or visit in spring to view the magnificent woodland bluebells.
