Oaken Wood

Oaken Wood is a mixture of mature trees, coppice, scrub and grassland on clay soil, and is a Butterfly Conservation Reserve on the Sussex Surrey border.
This 12 hectares (30 acres) reserve is part of the Forestry Commission's 324 hectare Chiddingfold Forest.

Butterfly Conservation have put together a video for people to watch during lockdown as part of the local Chiddingfold Wood White Project. This should give people an idea of things they can do to help wildlife in their own gardens, especially butterflies and moths.’
