A delightfully private wood with views across a paddock to the east. This manageably sized woodland is likely to have originally been an oak woodland with hornbeam coppice, converted to mainly sweet chestnut coppice in the late 19th century. The woodland has been coppiced intermittently since that time. Chestnut timber can be used for fencing, fuel and charcoal. Bluebells flourish in the spring, and red deadnettle, jack-of-the-hedge and charlock (a larval food source for butterflies) are also found in the wood.
Hackney Wood is situated about 5 miles north-east of Maidstone in Kent. It is within the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). It is part of a larger woodland known as Newlands Wood. The whole woodland is within a Kent Wildlife Trust Local Wildlife Site (download the citation and map from here).
