Queen's Wood

Queen's Wood is a 21 hectare area of ancient woodland in the London Borough of Haringey. It was originally part of the ancient Forest of Middlesex which covered much of London, Hertfordshire and Essex and was mentioned in the Domesday Book and is now one of three Local Nature Reserves in the London Borough of Haringey.
The wood is an ancient oak-hornbeam woodland, which features English oak and beech which provide a canopy above cherry, field maple, hazel, holly, hornbeam, hawthorn, mountain ash and both species of birch.

Capital Ring

The Capital Ring is a surprisingly green route that encircles London. Distance is 78miles; it threads together parks and open spaces, mostly following pleasant residential roads in between. The route is an initiative of the London Walking Forum. The route is very well signed, with a Big Ben logo TQ1678 : Three walk logos, Gallows Bridge. The route is a walker’s equivalent of the North and South Circular roads. LinkExternal link
