Coed Trellyniau Nature Reserve in Flintshire

Any standing dead trees are left for the benefit of invertebrates and birds, such as great spotted woodpeckers. The timber on the ground is allowed to rot and decay to provide a home for fungi, insects, and small mammals.

DIRECTIONS
At the Cilcain/Rhes y Cae crossroads on the A541, head north (signposted Rhes y Cae). Stay on the road for 1 km, and park in a small layby on the left just after the entrance to Fron Farm caravan park (SJ 186 689). Please do not block the field gate. The reserve is a short walk west along a public footpath, across fields and 3 stiles: cattle and sheep are often encountered.
