Prehen Wood

This Woodland Trust site is situated off the A5 Victoria Road, opposite the Everglades Hotel. It is a semi-natural ancient woodland, dominated by beech trees with a hazel, holly and oak under-storey. The woodland ground flora consists of bluebells, lesser celandines and wood anemones. This site is also a habitat for the red squirrel, sparrowhawk, badger and long-eared owl. It was declared a Local Nature Reserve in 2010 for its biodiversity, access and educational value.
