Peake Wood

Peake Wood is a 17.7-hectare (44-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest west of Petersfield in Hampshire. This is a prime example of a hazel and ash wood on calcareous soils. There is also a variety of other trees and a rich herb layer, which is dominated by bluebell and dog's mercury.

Other plants include the rare star-of-Bethlehem and fly orchid. The site is private land with no public access.
