Bricket Wood Common, Protected natural area in Hertfordshire, England
Bricket Wood Common spans 70 hectares of diverse landscapes, including ancient woodland, lowland heath, and several small ponds across the protected territory.
The land remained undeveloped for centuries as local villagers from Old Bricket Wood and Smug Oak used it for grazing animals and wood collection.
The site received designation as a Site of Special Scientific Interest in 1984, recognizing its substantial ecological value to the regional environment.
Visitors can access the common through multiple entry points located at Mount Pleasant Lane, Bucknalls Drive, and School Lane throughout the year.
The Abbey Line railway divides the common into separate natural zones, creating distinct environments for various plant species and wildlife populations.
