During the dry spring of 2007 there have been several outbreaks of fire in Eaves wood and the adjoining grassland along the edge below Heptonstall. This fire has ripped through the ground cover and turned the freshly unfurled, bright green leaves of the trees a crispy brown. The affected patch is visible from the opposite side of the Colden Valley .
