Field Trip - Weeley Hall Nature Reserve Bluebells
Sunday 19 April 2026
10:30 to 14:30
Meet in the Car Park
About:
Visit this beautiful woodland in spring to be fully immersed in a sea of colour, as the wildflowers that carpet this ancient woodland show off their bright flowers. In spring this wood comes alive with colour, with Bluebells carpeting the woodland floor before shifting to bright yellow as Yellow Archangel takes hold.
Throughout the woodland different patches of trees can be found, ranging from Oak, Sweet Chestnut coppice, to Scots and Corsican pine plantation, where White Admiral butterflies can be seen flitting through the trees in late Summer. Damaged in the great storm of 1987, the woodland has bounced back and is now flourishing.
From April to mid-May, listen carefully for the beautiful serenading song of Nightingale, among the calls of other woodland birds.
