Jamies Wood is a small woodland area located in the county of Cambridgeshire, England. Stretching over approximately 10 hectares, it is situated near the village of Wood, which is about 10 miles south of Cambridge. The wood is named after the local landowner and is a popular destination for nature enthusiasts and walkers.

The woodland is predominantly composed of broadleaf trees, such as oak, beech, and ash, which create a diverse and vibrant ecosystem. The dense canopy provides shelter for a variety of bird species, including woodpeckers, tits, and finches, making it an excellent spot for birdwatching. Additionally, small mammals like squirrels and hedgehogs can also be spotted in the wood.

The woodland floor is covered with a rich carpet of wildflowers, including bluebells, primroses, and wood anemones, which bloom in spring and add a splash of color to the landscape. This attracts a myriad of insects, including butterflies and bees, which contribute to the area's biodiversity.

There are several well-marked trails within Jamies Wood, allowing visitors to explore and enjoy the natural beauty of the surroundings. These paths wind through the trees, offering peaceful and tranquil surroundings for walkers and nature lovers alike.

Re-routed footpath by Great Wood The most recent map shows it following the edge of the field, which is also the Suffolk/Cambridgeshire border.
