Bericote Wood

Bericote Lane with Nishan Sahib This view over Bericote Lane, Blackdown, looking towards Bericote Wood, is framed by a pair of saffron-coloured Nishan Sahib flags, the 'exalted ensign' of the Khalsa Panth of initiated Sikhs. They stand outside the entrance to the Baba Ke gurdwara or Sikh temple on the northern outskirts of Leamington Spa, which is unusual in Britain for its rural setting. For more on the Nishan Sahib see the Sikh Museum website here <span class="nowrap"><a title="http://www.sikhmuseum.com/nishan/index.html" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" href="http://www.sikhmuseum.com/nishan/index.html">Link</a><img style="margin-left:2px;" alt="External link" title="External link - shift click to open in new window" src="https://s1.geograph.org.uk/img/external.png" width="10" height="10"/></span> .

Bericote Wood is a picturesque woodland located in Warwickshire, a county in the heart of England. Covering an area of approximately 100 acres, this enchanting forest is known for its natural beauty and diverse range of flora and fauna.

The wood is predominantly made up of deciduous trees, including oak, ash, and beech, which create a stunning canopy of vibrant colors during autumn. The forest floor is covered with a lush carpet of ferns, bluebells, and wildflowers, adding to its charm and tranquility. Bericote Wood is a haven for wildlife, with a variety of bird species, such as woodpeckers and owls, making their homes among the treetops. It is also home to small mammals like squirrels and rabbits, as well as occasional sightings of deer.

The wood features several walking trails, allowing visitors to explore its natural wonders at their own pace. These paths wind through the dense foliage, providing breathtaking views and opportunities for peaceful contemplation. Additionally, Bericote Wood offers picnic areas and benches, inviting visitors to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

With its serene atmosphere, diverse wildlife, and stunning scenery, it is a popular destination for nature enthusiasts, families, and anyone seeking a respite in the great outdoors.

Field Path from Hill Wootton Road to Wootton Spinnies The path along the edge of a ploughed field is indicated by a sign of the distinctive design of the Kenilworth Footpath Preservation Group. In the Spinnies, a linear wood by the River Avon, the path divides, one route continuing to Chesford Bridge over the Avon, the other to Leek Wootton village as indicated on the sign.

Entrance to the Ramada Hotel, near Chesford Bridge The hotel had been designated as an NHS Vaccination Centre for the Covid-19 booster programme. People coming by car were directed to a spacious rear car park, thence to a large but very odd function room. There was a long queue for the shots, which were professionally administered by at least half a dozen vaccinators. The Pfizer vaccine and a flu vaccine were given at the same time (we had had the AstraZeneca vaccine earlier in the year). Anyone attending by bus from the Kenilworth direction had to undertake a hazardous crossing of the A452 to reach the hotel.
