Cole Wood in Charing is a 12 acres mixed semi-ancient broadleaved wood dominated by sycamore with ash, oak and beech supporting a mixed vegetative community that was left to the Society a few years ago in order to manage it primarily in the interest of wildife.
We are always looking for volunteers to help manage the woods, e.g. making log piles, cleaning out bird boxes etc and if you feel you can offer some of your time then please contact the Society Secretary, contact details can be found on the Officers page.

PLANNING
ALERT When is a Green field Brown? WKPS
is concerned to stop the Weald being urbanised, and to keep it green. We broadly
support the efforts of government and most local authorities to ensure that the
housing figures (which local authorities are obliged to accept) are met as far
as possible by 'brownfield' development. Recently, however, developers have been
succeeding in getting gardens and other green spaces within villages and towns
recognised as 'brown', and filling them with houses. In commenting on the government's
latest draft housing policy statement (PPS3), we have urged that this be checked.
