Conservation of the Forest
Ashdown Forest is managed by the Board of Conservators of Ashdown Forest, an
independent body. In recognition of the ecological importance of Ashdown Forest and to ensure its protection, it is designated as a European Natura 2000 site and as a Site of Special Scientific Interest under UK legislation. Ashdown Forest is also within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The Conservators have duties laid down by statute which include the following:
● To regulate and manage the forest as an amenity and place of resort
● To conserve it as a quiet and natural area of outstanding beauty
The Conservators are keen to raise the public’s awareness of their legal duty and, within this, their aim of balancing the interests of all users of the forest. Please have particular regard therefore to the other users of the area, including all walkers, dog walkers and riders, all of whom are also seeking to enjoy their activities peacefully. Slow to a walk, keep especially quiet and keep a wide berth at any point where you meet horse riders.
