Bosard Wood, near Knaresborough, North Yorkshire
- Land size
- 4 acres
Description
The ride-stop entrance to Bosard Wood is set amid maturing beech and birch trees, with a few tall hybrid poplars in this area too. Predominantly a deciduous woodland frontage, with an understorey of young oak trees, coppiced goat willow and hazel and lots of fragrant honeysuckle scrambling through any available host.
From the entrance, where there is space to stack timber off the track, a path leads to the left, winding its way to a sleeper drain-crossing. Just beyond here is a rustic bench, situated in a little glade, at the foot of an oak tree. Closer to the stone track, the drain connects with a pond, which holds water in the wetter seasons and sometimes attracts wildfowl and other wildlife.
Beyond the bench, the trees are quite mature with magnificent oaks and Douglas firs, plus some holly bushes, which give the wood a timeless character as well as providing some winter greenery and fir cones. There are plenty of bluebells here in the spring. The path reaches a grassy track which leads down to the drain where a second sleeper bridge crossing is located and the path loops back towards the ride-stop entrance.
A public footpath runs north-south, close to the eastern boundary and on the boundary, a watercourse known as White Rail Beck, or Double Dike, flows year-round with coppiced hazel along its banks.
