Bluebells in Batcliffe Wood
Batcliffe Wood, in its present form, is best described as a linear park: a narrow belt of woodland with a few public paths along its length or joining from the side. An interpretation board on site explains that it was once part of the monastic New Grange farm, later known as Kirkstall Grange, which in the 19th century was owned at different times by the textile magnate John Marshall and the financier William Beckett. The estate now forms the bulk of the Beckett University campus and Beckett Park. A 'friends' group has helped to improve the woodland in recent years.
