Grindleford Conservation Area

Tree Planting in Derbyshire at Grindleford Conservation Area

Grindleford Conservation Area was designated in 1994 and forms part of the historical Froggart Woods.

* THIS WOODLAND IS Temporarily Full *
We’ve planted so many trees here that there isn’t any space to plant more. We hope to be able to plant here again in future years.

IMPORTANT VISITOR INFOTake only photos. Leave only footsteps.

To keep the woodland as natural as possible we don’t label individual trees and we ask that visitors do not place their own plaques, labels, flowers, etc in the woodland. Each tree we plant should be seen as part of a natural woodland.

Before visiting this woodland, please read our Frequently Asked Questions page, which gives you helpful tips about your tree and visitor guidance.

Grindleford Conservation Area is a mature, mixed woodland but which has suffered from ash die back.

Local volunteers, including some from Network Rail, planted a wide variety of native tree species.

The trees will improve the biodiversity of the area and provide a valuable habitat and food source for wildlife.
