Trace Ploughman Wood’s history back to at least the 12th century, using maps, written accounts and physical evidence on the ground. Michael Walker also shows how to apply the same research methods to other local woodlands.

Michael shares the research methods he has used to uncover the history of the wood, which dates back to at least the 12th century. He also explains how these approaches can be applied to other local woodlands, making the talk appealing to anyone interested in woodland history, local heritage and the natural environment.
