Looking through railings with a set of cut metal panels designed and signed by local school children. The dene is managed by Newcastle City Council and improved to benefit wildlife and people by the Wild Places Project and the Northumberland Wildlife Trust. Within the semi-natural woodland of the valley, an old concrete-lined paddling pool, fed by a spring, has been converted into a wildlife pond.
