Welcome to The Spinney

The Spinney is a wonderful community woodland playspace in South Lincolnshire which adults and children can visit 365 days a year.

It provides a fantastic setting where everyone is allowed to run wild in the woods. There is no entry charge and all activities are free. Adjoining the Spinney there is a large wildflower meadow with mown paths where you can also walk at any time.

The Spinney is situated just north of the village of Little Bytham, which lies 6 miles north of Stamford on the B1176 road.
