As you progress along the northern edge of the pond the willow scrub becomes more mature and open, the roots holding the silt and leaf debris to form more solid ground, although it is still too soft to support visitors feet. Sensitive management of this area has provided a clear channel between the public access path and this marshy woodland to protect this vulnerable habitat.
