Sheffield, South YorkshireAbout Wheata Woods
Wheata Woods is over 600 years old and full of history as well as wildlife.

Bird watchers should look out for redwings, tits, willow warblers and chiffchaffs, plus sparrowhawks, goldcrests and the great spotted woodpecker. Kids will love exploring this amazing woodland and looking out for the various archaeological spots, which include medieval pits, a millstone quarry, bomb craters, and ancient farm settlements.
