Pulham Market Big Wood is a 4.7-hectare (12-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest south of Long Stratton in Norfolk.[1][2]
This ancient coppice wood on boulder clay is probably the last fragment of a much larger area of woodland. The standard trees are mature pedunculate oaks and the coppice layer is very overgrown. The ground flora is dominated by bramble, honeysuckle and bracken.[3]
Boudica's Way footpath runs through the wood.
