Overscourt Wood
 The Forest Enterprise (part of the Forestry Commission) purchased land at Overscourt Farm in 1998 and planted Overscourt Wood. The site was further extended following the purchase of land at Webbs Heath Farm in 2001. The result is 87 hectares (207 acres) of new woodland and open space with full public access and wonderful views of Kingswood, Bristol and the Cotswold Edge.
Access
The terrain varies from level to relatively steep, all paths within the wood are grass. There is a small parking area on site and a number of public footpaths cross the area. Improved facilities, including parking, are planned.
How to get there...
You can get to Overscourt Wood from Siston Lane, which runs between Pucklechurch and Bridge Yate. There is a small car parking area - coming south from Siston, take the first left along a farm track immediately after the bridge over siston Brook.
The site can also be accessed via a number of public footpaths, (OS Explorer 155, grid reference: 688 748 for car park).
