Clare Nuttery
Welcome
to Clare Nuttery ...
where local people are creating a countryside site for everyone to enjoy.
Clare
Nuttery is owned by Clare Parish Council on behalf of local residents.
This small site (2 acres or 0.8 hectares) is being turned into a community
woodland through the enthusiastic efforts of local people. Clare has
very little woodland and none that is accessible to the public. At the
Nuttery we are creating a woodland that we can enjoy now and our great-grandchildren
will one day cherish. Hundreds of young trees have been planted over
the last 5 years, boundary hedges are being restored and a large pond
has been given a new lease of life. There are paths winding through
the trees, connecting two open glades and creating a lovely place to
walk the dog, listen to the birds or have a picnic.
Clare
Nuttery is located behind the cemetery, which can be reached from the
High Street opposite the church. From the cemetery chapel, the Nuttery
can be found by crossing to the top left corner of the field. Why not
combine a visit to the Nuttery with a walk around the Clare Circular
Footpath? The Nuttery is only accessible on foot but the ground is level
and there are no stiles or gates to negotiate. In winter the paths can
be muddy.
