Dothill Local Nature Reserve       

For wildlife and you

This haven for wildlife is a large area of green open space in the northwest corner of Telford. Designated as a Local Nature Reserve in 2016, it is owned by Telford & Wrekin Council and is freely accessible to the public.

The Henge

The LNR is made up of three main areas: Dothill Pool, Tee Lake and Beanhill Valley. Although surrounded by residential areas and main roads, the Reserve is the tranquil home to a diverse range of habitats and species over fairly gentle terrain. There are lakes, streams, woods and open meadows. It can be explored within a few hours, yet is a peaceful retreat from everyday life.

There are various walks around the Reserve, including the 50 Tree Trail and the shorter, circular Three Bridge Way. The Henge provides a focal point and central place to meet.

A big thank you to all you wonderful volunteers, what an amazing paradise you have developed.

Hi, do the Friends of Dothill ever meet and do work at the weekends?

Hello, thank you for your message. We used to run a monthly Saturday session but these were discontinued in 2019 due to lack of interest. Space limited here - can I help with anything else?

Thank you for your emails over the last year. I am unfortunately unable to offer any assistance, but I wish to express my thanks to you & the workers. You have all made such a difference to the area.
