A path in Fir Wood

Fir and Pond Woods is a 29 hectare nature reserve in Potters Bar in Hertfordshire. It is managed by the Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust.[1] It is two separate woods, with Fir Wood connected by a short footpath to the large Pond Wood to the south.[2]

The site is a remnant of the ancient Enfield Chase, and it has woodland, meadows and wetlands, and diverse bird life. Turkey Brook passes a meadow at the southern end of Pond Wood.[1]

There is access from Coopers Lane Road opposite Hook Lane.
