The area is known for its stunning views, peaceful atmosphere, and rich history.

The common is home to a variety of wildlife, including deer, foxes, badgers, and rabbits. It is also a haven for birdwatchers, with many species of birds, including woodpeckers, owls, and buzzards, making their home in the area. The common is also home to a number of rare plant species, including the orchid and the cowslip.

Bewley Common has a rich history, with evidence of human habitation dating back to the Neolithic period.
