Wilwell Farm Nature Reserve

Wilwell Farm Nature Reserve or Wilwell Cutting is a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest and Local Nature Reserve in Nottinghamshire.

The site was originally standard farmland, but in the 1890s a cutting was constructed to take the Great Central Railway's London Extension. The site was located between Ruddington railway station (in the up direction, i.e. south) and Arkwright Street railway station (in the down direction, i.e. north). The Great Central Main Line was closed in 1969, and in 1976 it was proposed that the cutting should be filled with rubbish. However local opposition saw it converted into a Nature Reserve.
