Passing through the access gate close to a small stream you have a choice between two routes running parallel. within Burbage Wood and along the wood edge. These wet SSSI woodlands are frequented all year by Great Spotted and Green Woodpeckers, Nuthatches and Tree Creepers with the occasional Raven being sighted. Hunting in and around the woods, hedgerows and open landscape are often Buzzards, Sparrowhawks, Kestrels, Little and Tawny Owls. More recently Red Kites have now become a repeated sighting.
