About the Venue
Around 100 acres of woodland borders the estate with areas of interest including special plantations, sections of coppice and a small arboretum comprising specimen trees, colourful rhododendrons and secluded glades. The woods also feature 10 acres of naturally occurring bluebells which provide a ‘blue carpet’ in late April-early May.
Members of the public are invited to enjoy this natural wonder on two ‘Bluebell Sundays’ in aid of Wetherden Church.
The parkland, also approximately 100 acres, is home to a variety of mature specimen oaks and their iconic silhouettes add drama to the landscape.
The grounds are currently used by Scouts and Guides, local running, cycling and orienteering groups and for sheepdog training.
