Forest of Arden
	9:51am Mon 16 Jun 08
	DANZEY Green is located a few miles east of Redditch, in the area that Shakespeare referred to when he wrote about the Forest of Arden. Even in his time, the forest was not composed solely of woodland, and that remains true today. Plenty of copses remain, along with some statuesque oaks dotted around in fields and hedgerows, and the landscape is still pleasant and peaceful. There's not much at Danzey itself, just a handful of houses and farms, so it's a near-miracle that it has retained its railway station. It used to have a windmill but that's long gone. Nonetheless, many of us will have seen it because it now stands in the grounds of Avoncroft Museum of Buildings, near Bromsgrove.

	Much of Tyddesley Wood belongs to Worcestershire Wildlife Trust, which welcomes visitors. There are numerous paths to explore, but please keep dogs on leads and do note that there's a military firing range at the south-west corner of the wood. You can find information on how to avoid this danger area on a notice within Tyddesley Wood, by the bridleway mentioned in points three and five.
