Bosvisack Plantation is a picturesque woodland located in Cornwall, England. Nestled in the heart of the county, this expansive forest covers an area of approximately 200 hectares, making it a significant natural reserve in the region. The plantation is situated near the village of Bosvisack, which lends its name to this beautiful woodland.

The forest is predominantly composed of a variety of broadleaf trees, including oak, beech, ash, and birch. These majestic trees create a dense canopy, providing shelter to a diverse range of flora and fauna. The forest floor is carpeted with an array of wildflowers, ferns, and mosses, adding to the enchanting ambience of the plantation.

Bosvisack Plantation is not only a haven for nature lovers but also serves as an important habitat for wildlife. The woodland is home to various species of birds, such as woodpeckers, owls, and finches, which can be heard chirping and singing throughout the year. Additionally, small mammals like squirrels, rabbits, and hedgehogs find refuge within the plantation's dense undergrowth.

For outdoor enthusiasts, Bosvisack Plantation offers an extensive network of walking trails and footpaths, allowing visitors to explore the woodland at their own pace. The peaceful atmosphere and stunning views make it an ideal location for hiking, birdwatching, and nature photography.

Managed by the local forestry commission, Bosvisack Plantation is open to the public year-round, free of charge. Its natural beauty, rich biodiversity, and tranquil setting make it a must-visit destination for those seeking to connect with nature in the heart of Cornwall.

Penventinnie Round Penventinnie Round is the site of an ancient settlement. The trees are growing on a circular rampart or earthwork that dates from the Iron Age. To take the shot, I stood in the field entrance on the opposite side of the lane from Penventinnie, in SW7945.
