Woolbeding and Pound Commons

Woolbeding and Pounds Commons is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and a Site of Nature Conservation Interest (SNCI). The area is lowland heathland consisting of a patchwork of various habitats, with wet and dry heathland, woodland and ponds. It has an abundance of the otherwise locally rare sundew plant Drosera intermedia.

The four common reptile species, adder, slow worm, common lizard and grass snake are all found on the site.
