Woodlands - Northwich Woodlands

Created from what was once largely derelict land, Northwich Woodlands now provides a rich and green environment to the north of Northwich town centre. This, the flagship project of The Mersey Forest, is made up of nine countryside sites each with a different character and history. The Weaver Navigation and the Trent and Mersey canal flow through the heart of the Northwich Woodlands adding further variety to the landscape.
