The woods consist of a belt of pit reclamation land alongside the 'Spine Road' which have been planted with a mixture of trees including Beech, oak, sycamore and elder. 'Robinia pseudoacacia' has also been planted to put nutrients into the soil and is being removed as it dies off. Carpets of bluebells, violets, snowberry, hawthorn and other flowering and berry bearing plants also add interest. The sites are well served by buses, although access is not marked and the paths are unmade.
