Waulkmill Glen is made up of semi-natural valley woodlands along the steep sided 'glen' and policy plantation woods leading up to the upper slopes. Towards the north the woodland becomes more open and has several large mature trees which were part of the designed landscape of Darnley House. Waulkmill Glen is rich in biodiversity with many woodland flora species recorded. Look out for carpets of bluebells in spring and the distinctive sound of the great spotted woodpecker.
