Lake District
woodland
Despite intensive
commercial planting of conifers in certain parts of the Lake District National
Park, there still remains many areas of broadleaved woodland. Especially in
the Ambleside area.
Oak, Chestnut,
Beech, Maple and Silver Birch are common. You may also discover willow in
abundance, a reminder of the Lake District's long history of charcoal burning
and gunpowder manufacture.
