Beschreibung
At 150 hectares, High Woods Country Park in Colchester derives from the once much larger medieval royal hunting forest of Kingswood. The park is a designated Local Wildlife Site (LWS). Nice for peaceful early morning walking and birding. Nachtigall in spring, woodpeckers, Kleiber and Waldbaumläufer. Warblers in the scrub areas.
