Views around the Reserve
Monday, December 15th 2014
Mike and Ian have been coming every Monday morning to enjoy the wildlife and scenery that can be found here at Foxglove. They are both avid photographers having already provided some of the images for this year's calendar. Mike shared some of his landscape photographs with us today.

Access to the Reserve: Closed Weds 16th October ONLY, reopens Thurs 17th
Friday 20th September 2024 |
Please note: the reserve is closed on Wednesday 16th October. Regular opening as described below will resume on Thursday 17th.
We are glad to announce that Foxglove Covert is reopening to the general public on Monday 7th October 2024.
A partial fix of the Foxglove Covert access gate has ensured that the safety features (sensors, emergency stop buttons) are now functional. This will allow safe access through the gate.
Unfortunately, the intercom and remote opening system by which the Guardroom normally opens the gate for entry and exit to the reserve is still inoperable. We do not have a timeframe for when this will be repaired.
Entry and exit to the reserve will therefore take place via key fobs which will be issued in exchange for photo ID (driving licence/passport) to visitors when they sign in at the Cambrai Lines front entrance. These fobs can be used to open the gate when entering and exiting the reserve. They must be returned to the front entrance pass office upon exiting the reserve.
Please note access will be limited by the number of fobs available. You may therefore be turned away at the pass office if all fobs are in use at that time. Please only collect one fob per visiting group and ensure you enter and exit the reserve together.
Please see below for organised events. Booking is essential, as attendees will be contacted with access arrangements ahead of the events.
If you are part of an organised group and would like to arrange a visit to the reserve, please contact reserve staff.
