Another Bluebell Hotspot!

I popped down to the Kingston Lacy Bluebell Wood to check it out.  It was very busy when I arrived in mid afternoon but thinned out later and was quiet once the light was really good.

Its an impressive sight and the aroma was really intoxicating.

To get there travel along the B3082 from Wimborne towards Blandford.  After going past QE School turn left into the first turning signposted to Pamphill.  You should be in Abbott Street.  Very soon you will see a church along a long drive to your left and a road with an avenue of trees to your right.  Turn left and park in the car park or along the road.  Walk back to Abbott Street and turn left then turn left into a small lane called All Fools Lane, which is just a farm track.  Follow that for about 150-200 metres then go right over a style and over a very small field to another style...you are now in the wood!

Keep an eye out along the lane as there are lots of ferns emerging, plus a few primroses, wild garlic and anemones.
