Welcome! Moors Wood is a small private woodland owned and managed by Sarah and Ian Blenkinsop as a nature reserve and as a sustainably managed source of various wood products.

Sarah is a freelance Environmental Educator, Lecturer and Forest School Leader. Based at her own site at Moors Wood, Sarah provides fun natural/recycled craft workshops; play or storytelling sessions; eco themed parties; workshops on food preservation, setting up an organic garden, setting up a composting area or keeping chickens; or training courses in various woodcraft and play skills. These services are available for adults and/or children. Sarah is also very happy to come to you and deliver any of the above, or to give talks to groups.

Follow the links to find out more about what is on offer. Please click on the photos if you need to make them larger. Also visit Sarah's other site, The Compost Bin, for more general info and advice on sustainable living.

Work in progress

While we are taking a break this year, lots of work is still going on in Moors Wood.

The JCB is getting lots of work and work progresses on the major landscaping around the pond and meadow area.




Bit of a break

Unfortunately due to ill health there will be no events or courses running in Moors Wood during the summer.

Hopefully things will improve and we will be back in operation later in the year

Happy New Year 2013


A January walk in the Wood. Just to prove that it has stopped raining in the last few days and that we WILL have a Spring, sometime


Cassi cat with me, as always


Emerging new life!


Tom Cat, looking thoughtful


Owl pellets.


Interesting fungi


More owl pellets on the bridge, dropped from...


These branches in the Old Oak Tree by the log circle (need to get that dead one down!)
