James Cooke Community Woodland, Witham - Open spaces and nature reserves

Witham Town Council and local people planted the woodland in 1993/94 to provide an area of quiet relaxation for local people and to create habitat that is attractive to a wide variety of wildlife. The woodland was planted using British trees local to the area and open grassland areas within the wood provide a wide range of habitats in which to view birds, butterflies and other such wildlife.
