A sizeable patch of ancient woodland, in contrast to the built up area to the south, west and north. Between 1973 and 1986 it was itself subject to planning applications and public inquiries, strongly opposed by the Petts Wood Residents Association, before eventually being purchased by Bromley Borough Council in 1991.
