East Blean Woods, Ancient woodland nature reserve in Kent, England.
East Blean Woods spans 151 hectares of semi-natural woodland with varied terrain, including clay soils and gravelly patches in the southern section.
The woodland management practices at East Blean Woods have evolved from wood pasture to sweet chestnut coppicing over multiple centuries.
The conservation efforts at East Blean Woods demonstrate the British commitment to protecting natural habitats and endangered species through active management.
Visitors can access the woods through multiple entry points, with a day parking fee of £2.50 and designated paths that require appropriate footwear.
The heath fritillary butterfly population thrives in this location due to the specific presence of common cow-wheat plants in recently coppiced areas.
