Threats to woodland in an urban landscape: A case study in Greater London
AbstractThe area of ancient semi-natural woodland in south-east London (Oxleas Wood) threatened by the construction of the East London River Crossing is analysed in terms of its extent, species richness, rarities, age-class structure and tree regeneration. A detailed study of its history produced evidence which concurred with data from coring trees on the date of origin of the stand and it is argued that understanding habitats of this type in terms of the past adds to the value of the site because of the benefits available to site interpretation. The site is an SSSI and the reasons for this designation are briefly presented. The problems of recreating ancient woodland are discussed and the value of the site to schools and other groups is also considered.
