New Nature Trail and Art Adventure at Millennium Wood!

Look out for the plaques

If you go down to the woods today, you may discover something new…our new Nature Trail and Art Adventure at Millennium Wood!

Spot the ten special plaques nestled on wooden posts to discover the wildlife, flora and fauna that thrive in this special part of Edenbridge.

Children will especially enjoy bringing the illustrations to life through the magic of crayon rubbings!

Spot our bug hotels

If you look closely, you might also spot a few insect and bug hotels dotted around the woodland too. These cozy habitats are part of our effort to support local biodiversity and provide a home for some of nature’s smallest – but most important – residents.

Plan your visit

Millennium Wood is open year-round at Mowshurst (home to Nomads Football Club). Free parking available. Please help us look after the woodlands for all to enjoy – do not litter, and clear up after dogs.

Edenbridge Town Council has once again demonstrated its dedication to creating and maintaining beautiful open spaces, bringing home a trio of prestigious awards from the 2024 South & South East in Bloom ceremony.

  • Gold Award for Stangrove Park: This year, we’re thrilled to announce that Stangrove Park has surpassed last year’s success! After receiving a Silver Gilt award in 2023, the park has gone one step further and earned the coveted Gold Award for 2024. The judges were impressed by the meticulously maintained grounds, signage and accessibility, and overall community involvement.
  • Silver Gilt Award for Edenbridge Churchyard and Cemetery: Edenbridge Cemetery has once again made us proud, achieving a Silver Gilt Award for its serene beauty and careful upkeep. The peaceful atmosphere and well-maintained greenery create a perfect space for reflection and remembrance.
  • Silver Award for Millennium Wood: Millennium Wood continues to be recognised for its natural beauty and biodiversity, receiving a Silver Award this year. The efforts to maintain this wonderful woodland as a haven for wildlife and a peaceful retreat for visitors are greatly appreciated.

These awards celebrate the ongoing efforts to enhance and preserve Edenbridge’s green spaces. Special thanks go out to all the volunteers, local groups, and council staff – especially our Grounds Team – who have worked tirelessly to make these areas a source of pride and joy.
