Rough Wood
Oak woods on old mining ground, there are many depressions due to bell pits. The northern part of the wood is marked as woodland on 19th century maps so the mining here was a long time ago. The bit by the canal has bigger bings and was mined on a bigger scale. There are lots of lovely old twisted oaks in here, but also big patches of thorns. The orienteering map is very green.

Rough Wood
A small but very interesting oak and thorn wood on very old mining terrain (it is shown as woodland on 19th century maps). There are numerous marshy depressions and dense thorn patches. Never quiet in here though as the M6 is next door.
