Danemead is a 5.6-hectare nature reserve west of Hoddesdon in Hertfordshire, managed by the Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust.[1] It is part of the Wormley-Hoddesdonpark Wood North Site of Special Scientific Interest.[2][3][a]

The site has hornbeam woodland, damp acid grassland, a stream, scrub and valley mire. There are many butterflies and wild flowers, including meadowsweet and devil's-bit scabious.[1]

The entrance is on a section of Ermine Street, formerly a major Roman road and now a bridleway. Access is from the Ermine Street carpark on Cock Lane. There is a gate on Cock Lane to a private estate called Danemead Scout Campsite [5] which is closed to the public, and the nature reserve is behind the private estate.

Notes

  1. ^ The site noticeboard states that it is part of the Broxbourne Woods National Nature Reserve, but according to the Natural England map of Broxbourne Woods this is incorrect.[4]
