Spread across a sprawling area of land, the coppice is renowned for its diverse range of trees and breathtaking natural beauty. It is a popular destination for nature enthusiasts, hikers, and photographers alike.

The woodland is primarily made up of broadleaf trees such as oak, beech, and birch, which create a dense canopy overhead. These trees provide a habitat for a variety of wildlife including birds, squirrels, and deer.

The coppice is open to the public throughout the year, offering a different experience in each season. In spring, the woodland is adorned with vibrant blossoms, while the golden hues of autumn paint a mesmerizing scene. During winter, the coppice transforms into a serene wonderland as snow blankets the trees and ground.

Benchmark, Hermons Hill Detail of the Ordnance Survey cut benchmark on the corner of a barn at Hermons Hill.  The benchmark appears to have been filled and this was possibly done to indicate cancellation when it was superseded by flush bracket benchmark G3100, below this benchmark on the same wall (photograph <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7118351">NY1004 : Flush bracket benchmark, Hermons Hill</a>).
The 1899 edition Ordnance Survey map shows this benchmark marking a height of 157.9ft above mean sea level, Ordnance Datum Newlyn.
