Wet Willow-dominated woodland
Close to the south-eastern corner of the site, on the banks of the River Dearne, is an area of wet, Willow-dominated woodland. As well as Goat Willow, Crack Willow and Common Sallow, other tree species in this area include Hawthorn, Sycamore and Elder.

The ground flora beneath these trees and shrubs is generally tall and lush, with Nettle, Bittersweet, Bindweed, Burdock, the introduced species, Himalayan Balsam, and an abundance of Hemlock Water-dropwort, a rare plant in the Barnsley area.
