Welcome to Prees Wood

Prees Wood is a beautiful woodland located in the county of Shropshire, England. The woodland is a popular destination for nature lovers and hikers, as it offers a peaceful and serene environment. The woodland is home to a variety of wildlife, including deer, foxes, and badgers. Visitors can enjoy a leisurely walk through the woodland, taking in the sights and sounds of nature.

The woodland is also home to a number of ancient trees, some of which are over 500 years old. These trees provide a habitat for a variety of birds and insects, making Prees Wood an important ecological site. The woodland is managed by the Forestry Commission, who work to maintain the natural beauty of the area while also ensuring that it is accessible to visitors.

In addition to its natural beauty, Prees Wood also has a rich history.
