  • Location plan for Linford Woodlands car park - SK504105 - view in Multimap or Streetmap format.




This area incorporates the John's Lee Woods scout camp and the surrounding Bailey-Sim Woods created in 1996 on what was farmland. Several paths link the area to other woodlands including Blakeshay.


The woods sit in the Ulverscroft Valley and the Johns Lee part is classed as Ancient Woodland. Bailey-Sim includes a fishing lake and wetland areas. Orienteering has been a feature at the scout camp for many years and we are permitted to run out into and through the newer woodlands with some restriction in the blocks.
