Wokefield Common
Wokefield Common is a delightful place with a well-connected network of paths that meander through tall pine and broadleaf woodland, past ponds, heather, and lush wet gullies.
Dragonflies
The Dragonfly Pond and Pullen’s Pond are home to a variety of dragonflies and damselflies and are definitely worth a visit, especially in the summer and early autumn.
Heathland
Regular thinning of the woodland helps the heathland thrive by allowing the heather to expand, creating a habitat for reptiles, butterflies, and perhaps even a few woodlarks.
Wokefield Common is lovingly cared for by the Berks, Bucks and Oxon Wildlife Trust, in partnership with West Berkshire Council and the landowner.
Parking information
There are two car parks available for you.Walking trails
Enjoy a lovely easy-access route approximately 0.8km long on flat terrain.
The route is clearly marked and you can find it on the orientation board next to the main car park.
Access
The main paths across the common are nice and even, while the minor paths crossing the wet gullies can get a bit steep, uneven, and soft after rain.
There’s an easy access route that’s perfect for people with limited mobility, ‘Tramper’ buggies, and those with pushchairs.
Just remember to wear suitable footwear!
