Black Heath and Swineholes Wood are two of the largest remaining fragments of heathland which would have historically clothed much of this ridge. Managed by Staffordshire Wildlife Trust, they represent a transition between the lowland heathlands of south Staffordshire and the larger expanses of upland moorland to the north.
