Bardney Limewoods
The Bardney Limewoods National Nature Reserve is a collection of small woodlands near Bardney in Lincolnshire.[1][2] The reserve includes about half the Limewoods in the area. Cocklode Wood, part of the Bardney Limewoods, is the best surviving spread of medieval limes in England. [3]
The Limewoods are diverse in tree species and ground species, but are dominated by the Small-leaved Lime Tilia cordata.[1] Linguistic and placename evidence suggests that the very name of Lincolnshire is anciently assosciated with the Lime, Linde being the Saxon name for the tree.[4][5]
Bardney Limewoods NNR is managed by the Forestry Commission.[2] A visitors centre is maintained at Chambers Wood Farm.[6] The NNR is said to include a quarter of the county's ancient woodland.[4]
