One of the proposed activities in the Woodland Management Plan is to introduce a coppicing programme to the area near the quarry where there was a concentration of hazels, and where there seemed to be evidence of earlier coppicing. In that area there is also a significant number of clumps of wood anemone, which is slow to establish itself, and which is an indicator of old woodland. One of the recommendations was to locate and map the areas where wood anemones were growing, so that damage could be avoided when coppicing work was being carried out and the wood anemones were not visible. Accordingly, in late spring a party of the woods management group set out to identify and record the locations of as many of these plants as possible
