Situated on a south-facing slope between Woodford Bridge and Fulwell Cross, Claybury Woods is London’s newest Country Park. We only explored a small section of woodland, which already held plenty of variation.

To visit you can take the 169 bus from Ilford/Barkingside to Fullwell Avenue (The bus stops close to side roads on Wedmore Avenue and Calne Avenue to lead onto Ravensbourne Gardens gates), or the 275 from Barkingside/Woodford Station to Tomswood Hill. (Gates to Claybury on Tomswood Hill opposite Wannock Gardens or through Stalham Way off Tomswood Hill.)
