Area of former woodland which has all but disappeared by 1965 mapping. This was probably due to opencast mining on the site. The woodlands around Stainborough park were mined around this period (see HSY6434). The date of origin for the former woodland is uncertain. There is fragmentary legibility of the former woodland as a small area of woods remains they have regenerated since 1938 when the edges of the wood had turned to scrub.
