The paths through Warmley Forest Park are a fairly recent creation as this was a former clayworks and then landfill site. Nevertheless, the wildlife has taken to it with enthusiasm and it is now home to bats. This path marker actually glows in the dark and provides a means for people to go out in search of the nocturnal mammals. Indeed, the local library can supply information to use on the walks as well as a bat detector!
