Field visit to Barnett's Wood, Southborough

Field club members were led around Barnett's Wood, Southborough by Ian Beavis @TWBC_Museum Curator at Tunbridge Wells Museum & Art Gallery and expert entomologist.

This 12 hectare reserve includes broad-leafed woodland, meadows and ponds and is managed by the Kent High Weald Partnership (http://www.khwp.org.uk/). Here there is a bridge dedicated to the late Mary Page, local botanist and a long standing member of the Kent Field Club who led many field meetings in the Tunbridge Wells area.
