Situated at the west end of Plumstead Common, behind Blendon Terrace, this is a wooded area containing a variety of trees. It had long been neglected, becoming an unofficial dumping ground. Neighbours who got together to clear the huge accumulation of rubbish became founder members of the Group. With the co­operation of the Council and a grant from the Co-op, PCEG adopted the site.

We have planted additional native trees and shrubs. A group of volunteers carries out work once a month. The reserve is used by local schools for “Forest Schools” projects. A major project, that has replaced the boundary fence and that will improve access by constructing steps, is now underway. See news of the project here.
