Lovely spot on the edge of Wendover Woods and the opportunity to enjoy nature in a tranquil setting. The orchids were fascinating and plentiful.

It does not seem that many people come to this place so it's always very peaceful. Summer is when the orchids bloom. You have to be very careful not to step on them.

Staggering displays of U.K. orchids and rare shrubs. Please mind where you tread; while there are many orchids here, many are nationally rare, so give them a chance! Wardens often present and very knowledgable.

Walked from Wendover up through the woods and then down to the Wendover Arm of the canal and back through Halton to Wendover
