Denham Lock Wood, Protected woodland near North Uxbridge, Great Britain
Denham Lock Wood spans 6.3 hectares of wet woodland and fen areas along the Grand Union Canal, featuring alder, oak, and willow trees.
The woodland received its Site of Special Scientific Interest designation in 1986, leading to management by the London Wildlife Trust for Hillingdon Council.
The site functions as an environmental education center where visitors learn about local ecology and conservation practices through guided nature walks.
Visitors can access the woodland via a footbridge across the Frays River from Frays Farm Meadows or through the Grand Union Canal Towpath.
The balsam carpet moth was discovered at Denham Lock Wood in 1955, marking only the second known location for this species in Britain.
