The Wick Golden Valley is a mature wooded valley local nature reserve in the village of Wick. The trees of English oak, beech, ash, whitebeam lime and wild service tree are a remnant of the ancient Kingswood royal hunting forest. There is bluebell cover in the spring and waymarked paths, the Red one leading to an Ochre quarry and large weir. The nature reserve contains a variety of habitats along the slopes and bottom of the valley, including a river corridor, woodland and grassland. These habitats have been heavily influenced by the quarrying and production of refined ochre that took place in the 20th century
The Little Bridges series was started by Stanthews in 2009 to highlight small footbridges in remote parts of Wiltshire. Since then the series has been expanded by others all over the country and starting to spread fast, Damian from Winter Foxes has created and updates a list of cachers who has found 10 or more little bridges and can be found here, if you would like to add to the series, please contact Stan here and he will give you a number for your bridge, to qualify, the bridge must be a foot bridge too small for vehicles, please make sure your title exactly matches “Little Bridges # xx then name” including spaces so it will get picked up and added to Damian’s list.
