The Willingford Stream in the Dallington Forest

Dallington Forest is a woodland to the east of Heathfield in Sussex.

An area of forty acres in the forest has been designated a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest.[1]

The Willingford Stream has cut through forest, creating a steep sided valley with a warm and moist microclimate and the woodland in the valley is the main feature of the site. In the north beech and oak are dominant, whereas in the south there is very little beech and the main trees are oak, birch and hazel. In the bottom of the valley there are stands of alder.[1]
