Flimwell Park was established to try to rejuvenate an unmanaged but rare and precious woodland in the middle of Flimwell. The aim was to build a new rural place that would be open for public use while providing accommodation, workspace and education for the community and beyond. The woodland is in need of a lot of work to help bring it into the 21st century as a sustainable, biodiverse, and resilient working woodland full of life and usable materials, as it has provided over many centuries. To help this happen, a new way of thinking about the land was required and this talk will explain the whats and whys of this project, as well as the hopes for its future.
