Visiting Boundary Brook Nature Reserve

Because of the proximity of Boundary Brook Nature Reserve to the East Ward Allotments from which it was created, the Reserve is a secure site, accessible with membership of OUWG from only £5/year.

By limiting visitors to those wanting to support the long-term future of the site, the Reserve offers the best conditions for wildlife to flourish.

Care of Boundary Brook Nature Reserve

OUWG really values the care members show of Boundary Brook we are so grateful for all the help you offer on site and at work parties. We have more work than ever with our grassland enrichment project for wildlife. Just a reminder please do not leave litter on site or disturb the habitats, move things around the site or take anything away, the site is carefully managed for the benefit of wildlife at all times. Please leave the site just as you found it.

To protect wildlife in the reserve we ask that you leave your dogs at home when visiting the site, unless you have a guide or companion dog in which case they are welcome to accompany you on a lead. Thankyou for your understanding.

Join us to see for yourself the hidden secrets behind the gates!

Please note that booking for events is now essential.

Please email info@ouwg.org.uk to register for an event, so that we are able to manage numbers. The site continues to be open to members and we ask you to have sensitivity to others who may be socially distancing.
