Bluebells are Out

The annual bluebell carpets at Spring Wood are now almost fully out.  They are one of the best shows of blue bells you will see.  It was a cold dull day but they still looked impressive.  Spring Wood was once owned by the monks of Whalley Abbey and was originally called Oxheywoode. It formed part of a larger medieval deer park which can still be traced on maps. Spring Wood lies astride the A671 near Whalley. There are car parks, toilets and even an ice cream van.
