I still need to pay a few more visits to Baildon Bank, I have heard Green Woodpeckers but have yet to see one. Baildon Bank is now part of the Bradford Pennine Gateway Nature Reserve and you can see the extent of Gateway on the interactive map on the Baildon Moor<\/a> page. We have yet to see what it means in terms of access and management but I have enjoyed my wanderings, and there have been surprises, so I am looking forward to more visits. This posting is from 4 visits – 8th, 10th, 11th and 13th August 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In parts of Baildon Bank there are lots of Oak trees and, following the Bracken Hall Countryside<\/a> walk, I have continued to check them for the growths due to Gall Wasps, and there are lot of them. Some trees seem untouched, others have lots of one kind and others have lots of several kinds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
