Honeypot Wood

Honeypot Wood is a protected woodland covering 9.5 hectares with chalky soil and a mix of dense deciduous trees and open grassland. The site features several walking routes that wind through different habitat types within the designated area.

The woodland received official designation as a Site of Special Scientific Interest in 1985 in recognition of its biological importance. This protection status reflects regional efforts to safeguard important natural habitats in Norfolk.

Norfolk Wildlife Trust organizes educational programs within the woodland, teaching local students about plant identification and conservation methods.

The site is accessible year-round with marked pathways guiding visitors through the woodland. Visitors should stick to designated trails and avoid disturbing protected plant areas and research zones.

The woodland supports more than 200 plant species, including rare specimens such as greater butterfly-orchid and broad-leaved helleborine. This botanical richness in a compact area makes it exceptionally valuable for plant research.
