Silver Wedding Clump is a picturesque woodland located in Durham, England. Situated within the larger Forest of Durham, this enchanting woodland covers an area of approximately five acres and is renowned for its natural beauty and tranquility.

The woodland gets its name from the silver birch trees that dominate the landscape, creating a stunning silvery glow when the sunlight filters through their delicate leaves. These birch trees, alongside a variety of other native tree species such as oak and beech, form a dense canopy that provides shade and shelter for a diverse range of flora and fauna.

Walking through Silver Wedding Clump, visitors are greeted with a peaceful ambiance and the soothing sounds of birdsong. The forest floor is adorned with a carpet of wildflowers, including bluebells and primroses, which bloom in vibrant colors during the springtime.

The woodland is a haven for wildlife, providing a habitat for various species of birds, mammals, and insects. It is not uncommon to spot squirrels bounding from branch to branch or catch a glimpse of a deer gracefully navigating through the trees.

Silver Wedding Clump is a popular spot for nature enthusiasts, photographers, and those seeking a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. With its breathtaking natural scenery and abundant wildlife, it offers a truly immersive and rejuvenating experience for all who visit.

Low bridges over stream The minor stream is a feeder of Langley Beck and is about to pass beneath the B6274; it's also crossed twice in the field. The nearer crossing is by a pipe which is supported by a concrete channel; the farther one must be a crossing point for farm vehicles.

Stream under B6274 at Alwent Looking downstream from the B6274 roadbridge, it's not immediately obvious that this small stream is about to disappear underground, only to reappear at the far side of the next field. The large-scale map doesn't make clear whether this behaviour is natural or man-made. After it issues, it continues uninterrupted to flow into Langley Beck.
