Robin Hood Cemetery
Robin Hood Cemetery in Streetsbrook Road opened in 1917 and closed for new grave burials in 1992, when Widney Manor Cemetery in Image took over as the borough's principal cemetery. A chapel (visible at the end of the avenue) was built in 1931 and Image added in 1958. For a more recent view of the entrance gateposts, see Image The 45 acre site is carved from ancient woodland, a remnant of the Forest of Arden, and in May the bluebells in the woodland areas were a magnificent sight.
Sadly it seems that the name has nothing to do with the fabled outlaw, but derives from a misreading of "Robin Wood" on an 18th-century map.

Palmers Rough
In this view, Palmers Rough children's play area is to the left and Squires Coppice straight ahead. The whole area is a designated Local Nature Reserve and both woods are ancient woodland. One reason Palmers Rough is special is because the acid soil has created Oak and Birch woodland.

Pond at Palmers Rough
This pond is situated within the Palmers Rough Local Nature Reserve. It is man-made and probably mid 20th century in origin. It has recently been the subject of a restoration project with the aim of removing silt and debris, restoring water quality and improving the quality of habitat.
