About West Stow
West Stow offers good opportunities for quiet recreation and wildlife watching in Kings Forest. On the northern edge of the Lark Valley, the walk passes through belts of old pine and oak as well as newly planted and mature conifers. Dale pond adds diversity to the area with its rich dragonfly life and is also a summer watering hole for many birds.
