Copperas Wood

Copperas Wood is a 13.8-hectare (34-acre) nature reserve between Ramsey and Wrabness in Essex.

It is owned and managed by the Essex Wildlife Trust,[1] and is part of the Stour and Copperas Woods, Ramsey Site of Special Scientific Interest.

[2][3] This is ancient sweet chestnut and hornbeam coppice.

The Great Storm of 1987 caused severe damage, and some areas have been left to regenerate naturally.

[1] The Essex Way goes through the reserve from Wrabness Road.
