Danby Wood Plant survey
Over recent months, Janet Higgins an Eaton village resident and member of our Friends of Danby Wood has carried out an extensive survey of the plant life in Danby Wood. It shows how species rich the woods are and we thank Janet for her time and enthusiasm in carrying out this survey.
