Coed Pendugwm
Wise Old Oaks
THIS RESERVE IS CURRENTLY CLOSED DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF DANGEROUS TREES
The importance of this was highlighted when a number of trees and large branches came down in the recent gales. Please be patient; we hope to be able to open up at least some of the paths soon.

Majestic sessile oaks have nurtured this quiet corner of Wales for over 400 years providing leafy cover for plants and animals and creating a 'wild wood' – the likes of which once covered large areas of the country. Although only 3.2ha in size, the reserve has been designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) in recognition of the special trees, plants and animals that live here.
Directions to the reserve: Coed Pendugwm is found at grid reference SJ103142 on a minor road a mile north of Pontrobert towards Llanfihangel. Park in the reserve car park down the short but steep track opposite Pendugwm Farm.
