Foal Hurst Wood

A small nature reserve comprised of ancient woodland and meadow. There are footpaths present for walks all year round. Look out for numerous species of bird such as woodpeckers and blackcap. Spring brings a beautiful carpet of bluebells, and in summer dog rose and honeysuckle thrive. The entrance to the reserve is approx 300m from the junction of Maidstone and Badsell Road on the left hand side, adjacent to the Badsell allotments, or a 15min walk or short bus ride from Paddock Wood town centre.
