Wivenhoe Wood is managed by Colchester City Council apart from a small section alongside the bottom of the KGV Playing Field, which is managed by Wivenhoe Town Council.
As part of CCC’s management of the Wood, known as the Colne Local Nature Reserve, a quantity of dead wood is left on site as habitat and it is an offence to remove wood for any reason. If you would like further guidance or have any concerns, please call the Countryside Team on 01206 853588.
Camp fires in the Wood should be reported to Essex Fire Service.
