Sydenham Woods Oak Tree Protest

A fence warns walkers to this part of the ancient woodland habitat in Sydenham Hill Woods, on 18th November 2020, in London, England. Once part of the Nunhead to Crystal Palace (High Level) railway which once passed through this flat part of Sydenham Hill Woods, its track bed can be followed to a disused and closed tunnel which is now a registered bat roost. Sydenham Hill Wood forms part of the largest remaining tract of the old Great North Wood, a vast area of worked coppices and wooded commons that once stretched across south London. The habitat is home to more than 200 species of trees and plants as well as rare fungi, insects, birds and woodland mammals.
