Midger, Protected woodland reserve in Gloucestershire, England.
The 56-hectare biological reserve contains ancient woodland with ash trees, pedunculate oak, and field maple spread across multiple sections including Midger Wood and Whitewell Wood.
The Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust purchased Midger Wood in 1965 after previous ownership resulted in the removal of numerous oak trees during the 1950s.
Prince Charles visited the Midger SSSI reserve in March 1995, observing demonstrations of traditional charcoal production methods using coppiced and fallen timber.
Visitors can access the reserve seven miles south of Nailsworth, with parking available in a small quarry after turning at the Hillesley signpost.
The stream area features small waterfalls with calcareous tufa deposits, while the ground layer supports rare plants including herb paris and green hellebore.
