The Great North Wood was a vast wooded landscape that once spanned from Deptford in the north to Selhurst in the South.

The woods today

Today the Great North Wood lives on as a scattering of ancient woodland fragments, with  Sydenham Hill Wood and Dulwich Wood forming the largest. Ancient woodland is interspersed with recent woodland and other greenspaces and the landscape continues to be a vital resource for wildlife and people alike.
