Dunhams Wood

Dunhams Wood is a privately owned broadleaved woodland that is occasionally open to the public. The area was planted over a period of 6 years starting in 1985. It is located approximately 2 miles (3 km) outside of March, Cambridgeshire in Fenland.

The area is owned by Margaret and Arthur Dunham, who open the woodlands to the public during the summer. Treasure hunts and other games take place within the wood. A major feature of the wood is the Dunhams Wood Railway. There is a miniature railroad at 7.25-inch (184 mm) gauge with approximately 800 yards (730 m) of track that snakes through the woodland.

The woodland is also used as a venue for various events including wildlife viewing, photography and archery. Margaret and Arthur Dunham were interviewed for the BBC Radio 4 program "Breakfast with a Farmer" in 1992.
