25th February	Ockwells Park and Thriftwood
	We are returning to Ockwells Park and Thriftwood to do further coppicing and clearing. This time we will be working in Little Thriftwood, the area of ancient woodland (not where we were last time). Our aim is to allow a larger area to receive more sunshine in order to encourage new growth from the coppice stools and more woodland ground flora. Ranger Tom has already coppiced the larger stems which were too big to handle with hand tools. Meet in the car park here: Map, OS: SU 87845 78777, Postcode: SL6 3AA, What3Words: economies.slim.plant

Bray Pit is sandwiched between Bray Sailing Lake and the M4 here What3Words: complains.snow.plant.
