St Albans Woodland Burial Trust \ Nightingale Glade Keysoe

Nightingale

Officially opened in 2014 together with 5 other Glades which are all reached from a central avenue of trees running the length of the woodland. There is also a path connecting it to Wren and other earlier woodland glades

Like many of the other new glades, it comprises a variety of stunning woodland trees including Oak and Mountain Ash, all of which are growing strongly and benefit from that tranquility that only nature can provide.

Fauna and Wildlife

The Glade nestles within 60 acres of managed woodland and mainly comprises Oak, Ash and Maple variants together with other native species. The trees have already achieved an impressive level of maturity and it doesn't take much imagination to envisage the ancient woodland of tomorrow.

It is the second nearest Glade to the entrance of the woodland and offers a sanctuary for many different woodland plants and animals which are actively encouraged through good husbandry of the land.
