Armes Wood is 2.4 acres of urban woodland behind Sainsbury's in Sudbury. The William Armes carpet factory once occupied the site but since 2004 it has been neglected. Once a working chalk pit supplying to industry, it has now been colonised by self seeding sycamore and acacia. Eden Rose took responsibility for Armes Wood in September 2018 and thanks to the hard work of our volunteers we have planted over 900 trees including Hazel, oak; elm; rowan; Wild cherry; field maple; silver birch; hawthorn and hornbeam. Additionally in early 2022 we planted a mature mixed orchard and a number of small leaf limes. We also created a pond.
