Situated in the heart of the countryside, it covers an area of approximately 100 acres, making it a significant forested area in the region. The wood is known for its diverse range of flora and fauna, with a variety of tree species including oak, beech, and birch dominating the landscape.

The wood is characterized by its dense canopy, which provides a sheltered habitat for numerous species of birds, mammals, and insects. It is a popular destination for nature enthusiasts and birdwatchers, who come to observe the diverse wildlife that calls Ashburn Wood home. The tranquil atmosphere and peaceful surroundings make it an ideal place for walking, hiking, and picnicking.

Lone tree beside fence on route of Teesdale Way In this image Teesdale lies below, to the left. The dome of moorland partly obscured by the lowest bough of the tree extends to the west dividing the main Tees valley, which lies unseen in line with the fence, from Lunedale which lies to the left in the photograph.
