Scrub
The steep bank below Rotherham Road in the north-west corner of the site has shrubs of Elder and Hawthorn; intermixed with open grassy areas with Rosebay Willowherb, Hogweed, Thistle, Burdock, Bindweed, Ragwort, Goosegrass, Japanese Knotweed, Nettle and Rose. As this bank approaches the woodland, other tree species start to appear including Sycamore, Oak, and Hazel and the ground flora becomes dominated by Bramble.

Other areas of scrub and scattered trees can be found in the west of the site along the edge of the old canal and the plantation area.
