Well wooded site chiefly coniferous but with more deciduous on its boundaries. Good for woodland birds, including Woodcock. On the south east boundary there is a lookout tower which gives good views over Holt Lowes and the Glaven Valley. NWT now graze the Lowes with a group of cattle and horses. Parrot Crossbill being the most notable species in recent years.
