Oak Hill Woods Local Nature Reserve
Oak Hill House was built in 1790 in the grounds of an older mansion called ‘Le Monkefrieth’ which had been there since 1273. Its name meant the monks woodland but Monkfrith was demolished in 1937. Oak Hill is now a theological college.
Oak Hill Woods date back to at least the eleventh century, when it was owned by the church. After the dissolution of the Monasteries it was sold in 1536-38 and remained in private ownership until it was bought by East Barnet Council in 1930. Oak Hill Park was established in 1933.
The small woodland at the northern end of the park is known as Oak Hill Woods Local Nature Reserve. It was declared a Local Nature Reserve in 1997 and is managed by the London Wildlife Trust. It is at least partly ancient woodland suggested by the presence of Wild Service Tree and Midland Hawthorn, and flowers such as wood anemone and yellow archangel.
There is free access to Oak Hill Woods Local Nature Reserve, but not from this small piece of grassland next to Daneland as the woodland edge is impenetrable.
