Friskney Decoy Wood

A woodland and relict decoy pond and pipes, which fell out of use in 1878. Surrounding the old decoy pipes is woodland, mostly consisting of birch, sycamore and Scots pine, with rowan, alder, willow and aspen. Some woodland may have grown here before draining of the East Fen, but most of the trees have been planted. Over 30 species of birds have bred, and large numbers use the wood in winter for feeding and roosting.
