Mill Hill Old Railway Nature Reserve
Mill Hill Old Railway Nature Reserve is a 2.3 hectare Site of Borough Importance for Nature Conservation, Grade II, in Mill Hill in the London Borough of Barnet.[1][2]
The reserve follows the route of the Highgate to Edgware line, closed in 1964,[3] of the Edgware, Highgate and London Railway, between Dean's Lane and Bunns Lane.
Most of it, between Dean's Lane and a short footpath from The Meads, is a closed site managed by the London Wildlife Trust. It is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sundays. The remaining stretch to Bunns Lane borders Lyndhurst Park. This is not managed and very overgrown.
The reserve is wooded, with some areas of rough pasture and herbs, and a large number of slow-worms. The grassland has a variety of wild flowers including burnet saxifrage and the rare great burnet.[1]
