The woodland is predominantly composed of native trees such as oak, ash, and beech, creating a diverse and rich ecosystem.

A successful crossing of A64 Walking from Low Hutton and emerging on to the A64 by St Andrew's Lane, one is faced with a 200m walk through the linear rubbish dump that is the grass verge before making a dash across the road avoiding 40 ton trucks on the way. The road looks relatively quiet in this photo, but it is one of the most congested in North Yorkshire and is inadequate for the amount of traffic using it.

Path at the woodland edge There's a choice of three paths from Low Hutton towards the A64. St Andrew's Lane is the shortest and the path through the woods nearer the river is probably the most scenic, but on the advice of a local resident I took this path which is far less muddy than the one nearer the river. Time and effort saved on boot cleaning at home.
