Poringland Wood
Summary
This woodland is adjacent to Framingham Earl High School. It stretches over the borders of the parishes of Framingham Earl and Framingham Pigot, and consists of mature mixed woodland extended by Corsican Pine and deciduous trees.
It is owned by Crown Point Estate and managed by us and the Norwich Fringe Project.
Further information
Poringland wood is used for ‘quiet recreational use’ and has become an increasingly popular venue for dog walkers and those looking for a pleasant walk in beautiful countryside.
The wood stretches over 10 hectares and has provided the venue for many community activities, such as the hedge planting day, as well as providing a superb educational resource for Framingham Earl High School next door.
During the short time that this site has been open to the public, a lot of work has been done to make it more accessible to the public, not only cutting back hedges and trees, but also building a clear walkway for wheelchair and pushchair users.
