The space is decorous enough to operate as its own enclosed area, functioning as a haven of quiet and calm. Though set close to the road, you wouldn’t know it. The natural woodland floor is ideal for walkers, set as it is with flat, marked pathways and routes. It’s a must-do for any tree-spotter, with so many species set side-by-side in a luxurious array of height, colour and growth. Short and generally level, a round circuit here typically appeals for its ease and accessibility, winding through deciduous woodland made up of oak, silver birch, holly and twisted hornbeam. Here, wide, scenic views are seen from ground level, flaunting the best of what the local landscape has to offer. It’s an accessible walk, good for anyone who fancies a leisurely stroll with all the scenic prowess you’d expect after a hike into the summits. Clear days give 360 views of the surrounding peaks, inherent with a visual appeal that will make you stop and take it in. Stacked rock forms a wobbly border edging the tawny-tinged fields, with square on square of green extending as far as the eye can see.

Quaker’s Coppice is right on the edge of Crewe, with views that reward the effort made to pinpoint it as a specific walking site.
