HIKING CARPENTERS WOOD A MIND-BLOWING 400 YEAR OLD ANCIENT WOODLAND

This is possibly one of the most beautiful woodlands I have visited. The Carpenters Wood has been wooded for at least 400 years. An ancient woodland indeed. Carpenters Wood has the most stunning sights anytime of the year and I would encourage a family day out exploring the ancient wood as you can tell from the video.
