    Hiking

    Lying within the parish of Cantley-with-Branton, Black Carr Plantation is a 20 hectare woodland largely created two hundred years ago as part of a 7000 acre estate.

    Ghost hunters will be interested to know that the plantation was once known locally as Wailing Wood. The name is linked with a tale still told by local people of a carriage which overturned in fog on Warning Tongue Lane many years ago. Several travellers were killed. One of the dead - a woman - is said to haunt the woodland on foggy nights, even to this day.
