Pennine Lower Coal Measures Formation: mudstone, siltstone, sandstone, coal, ironstone and ferricrete, Carboniferous, Langsettian (Westphalian A), about 316 to 314 million years ago. 121 neighbourhoods (Lowedges, Batemoor, Jordanthorpe, …)

Forestry Commission, National Forest Inventory

Sheffield's woods

The National Forest Inventory maps every wood of half a hectare or more in England from aerial photography. Its 2025 release counts 4,080 ha of woodland in 980 parcels inside Sheffield, about 14.8% of the city's land.

Woodland: 4,080 ha980 parcels
Share of the city: 14.8%of the land inside the neighbourhoods
Broadleaved: 73%of the woodland

What kind of woodland

Broadleaved · 2,990 ha · 73.3%oak, birch, beech, ash and other trees that drop their leaves
Conifer · 627 ha · 15.4%pine, larch, spruce and other needle trees, mostly planted

Parcels that touch are counted as one wood, and a parcel counts as Sheffield's when its centre falls inside a Sheffield neighbourhood, so a wood on the city edge can be counted in part. The inventory carries no names: the names here are ours, added from the map. Every wood by type on the Local Map
