Severndroog Castle stands in Castle Wood, one of Britain’s few remaining ancient deciduous woodland sites, dating back over 8000 years. Designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest, Castle Wood spans 72.7 hectares and forms part of a broader parkland network that includes Oxleas Wood, Jack Wood, and Shepherdleas Wood.
These interconnected green spaces are part of London’s Green Chain Walk and the Capital Ring Walk, offering scenic woodland trails perfect for walkers, runners, families, and nature enthusiasts alike. Along the trails, discover diverse flora and fauna, historic pathways, and glimpses of the city beyond the trees.
