This copse covers a tiny area in a residential part of Christchurch. Nevertheless, it is an important part of nature conservation, and is maintained by the local council's countryside service, using mostly volunteer help. The copse is the remains of the Grove Farm Estate, and is estimated to have been wooded for at least 200 years.
