WFV, Bishop Wood, nr Tadcaster, 11th July 2023
This was our group's first ever visit to this ancient woodland which lies to the east of the village of Biggin. Three of us did do a recce back in early 2020 when the plan was to go in early June of that year to see the Argent & Sable Moth, at its only Yorkshire site, but sadly Covid ruined our plans. The site is quite extensive & is bordered to the west by a main railway line & to the south by a busy road. It is very flat with some wide rides so walking this woodland is as easy as it gets.
The forecast was for sunshine & showers so we were all prepared for some rain & though it often threatened it never arrived !
