Hollington - Church Wood.jpg

Church Wood & Robsack Wood

Church Wood & Robsack Wood are remnants of a much large area of forest that used to cover most of the Hollington area. The ancient coppice woodland in the central plateau of the nature reserve, surrounding Church-in-the-wood churchyard, is dryer and more acidic with a distinctively different botanical nature to other woodlands in Hastings. This creates a more open forest ecology rich in invertebrates and insectivorous breeding birds.
