Excerpt: Denge Wood is a wood located 8 miles southwest of Canterbury in Kent, England. The wood is owned by the Forestry Commission and the Woodland Trust. Part of the wood is also privately owned. Much of Denge Wood is classified as ancient semi-natural woodland suggesting it has been in existence since at least 1600AD and probably longer. Denge Wood is situated on the dip slope of the North Downs and within the Kent Downs AONB. The wood is located on clay with flints over chalk bedrock at a maximum altitude of 140 metres. Two dry valleys run northward on the eastern side of the wood whilst the western side is located on a plateau. The western most fringes of Eggringe Wood and Down Wood form part of the eastern Stour Valley escarpment. The wood consists largely of chestnut coppice and conifer plantations. There are also areas of beech (Fagus sylvatica), hazel (Corylus avellana), ash (Fraxinus excelsior) and oak (Quercus robur) woodland. There are several clearings in the wood where there is a mixture of scrubland and chalk grassland such as at Bonsai Bank. Bluebell (Hyacinthoides non-scripta)and Wood Anemone (Anemone nemorosa) grow on neutral soils whilst on the akaline, lime rich soils plants such as Dog's Mercury (Mercurialis perennis), Herb Paris (Paris quadrifolia) and Columbine (Aquilegia vulgaris) can be found. Denge Wood is particularly notable for the range of orchids that it supports. Twayblade (Listera ovata), Common Spotted Orchid (Dactylorhiza fuchsii), Pyramidal Orchid (Anacamptis pyramidalis), Greater Butterfly Orchid (Platanthera chlorantha), Man Orchid (Aceras anthropophorum) and Fragrant Orchid (Gymnadenia conopsea) occur in the scrub...More: http: //booksllc.net/?id=1132522We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
