Wot, no oak trees?
The eastern entrance to Oak Tree Heath Nature Reserve, flanked by a field maple (left) and a sycamore (right). Despite the name, there are few, if any, oak trees on the heath.
Oak Tree Heath is part of the Strawberry Hill Heaths Site of Special Scientific Interest. It consists of lowland heathland, now one of our most threatened and fragile habitats. One fifth of the world's lowland heath is in Britain, and this is one of Nottinghamshire's largest remaining areas, although it was once typical of the Sherwood Forest landscape.

Oak Tree Heath
Oak Tree Heath is part of the Strawberry Hill Heaths Site of Special Scientific Interest. It consists of lowland heathland, now one of our most threatened and fragile habitats. One fifth of the world's lowland heath is in Britain, and this is one of Nottinghamshire's largest remaining areas, although it was once typical of the Sherwood Forest landscape. The heather is not at its best at this time of year.
The chimneys to the left of the photo belong to the Oak Tree Lane district heating system, which is being replaced with individual boilers in each house.
