Featuring mixed woodland, meadow, a nature pond and butterfly glade, Boundary Brook is home to a rich variety of wildlife from birds and butterflies to frogs and foxes.

Oxford Urban Wildlife Group have asked for our help with grassland maintenance. This usually means digging out some tenacious bramble roots so that they don't resurge with a vengeance in the spring. This is the best time of year to get it done, and we'll certainly work ourselves warm doing it!

Please bring your own gardening gloves. All other tools will be provided. It is usually muddy at this location, so wellies or other sturdy footwear are advised.

The task meeting point is outside the gate to Boundary Brook Nature Park, which is on the cycle way just past Larkrise Primary School at the end of Boundary Brook Road.
