Litten Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Greenford, United Kingdom.
Litten Nature Reserve is a woodland area in Greenford that covers about 1 hectare and contains various tree species including horse chestnut, hazel, oak, elder, and snowberry. The site includes a classroom and informational materials for visitors.
The site contains a line of oak trees that are several centuries old and remain from an old hedgerow that once divided the land. These trees mark where agricultural boundaries once stood in this part of the region.
The reserve serves as a hands-on place where school groups and visitors can explore the natural world together. Local education programs and activities here connect people directly with plants and animals in their living habitat.
The site is located at 118 Oldfield Lane South and requires arranging your visit in advance. Basic facilities such as toilets and printed guides are available to help make your visit comfortable.
The reserve has three ponds, and two of them follow natural water cycles where they fill with water in winter and dry out in summer. This seasonal change creates different habitats for various species throughout the year.
