The Thornborough and Coombs Woodland Enterprise Trust was established in 2015 to preserve and enhance 168 acres of green space within Thornborough parish, near Buckingham, known as Thornborough Community Woodlands and Coombs Quarry.

 

The area is fully enclosed and separated from main roads and farmland by clear boundaries to provide many well signposted walking routes, which makes it a large open space that is unusually safe, particularly for dogs and children.


Please do not bring horses or bicycles to the site as these can cause damage to the paths and be a nuisance to other use

Coombs Quarry


Coombs Quarry, a regionally important geological site and nature reserve. The quarry is accessible and features fossil bearing Jurassic limestone. Some time ago we installed a picnic table in the area to enable visitors the quarry to stop and rest or to have some lunch. We are delighted to inform you that we have received funding from The National Grid Electricity Distribution Community Matters Fund to further improve the area by creating a hard pathway to the quarry. This will make a big difference to those with mobility issues who want to visit the quarry, either for educational purposes or pleasure. Entry is from the Padbury Road where there is off road parking. There are no facilities here just a quiet place a in pleasant location.
