Uprising Coppice is an ancient broadleaf woodland with lots of variety and character set within the High Weald AONB.

As the name would suggest a majority of the woodland is well stocked coppice of mainly hazel, birch and sweet chestnut. Throughout the wood, a wide range of species are present. Towering red cedar, Scots pine and wild cherry can be found to the north. Mature hornbeam and field maple line an impressive woodbank bordering the field and wonderful views to the northeast. Ash, beech, hawthorne, black alder, holly, honeysuckle and elder can also be found. 

A power line runs from east to west in the northern part of the woodland allowing in lots of light giving a variety of shrubs, flora and fauna space to populate. 

There are some good flat open areas throughout the wood making it ideal for camping and woodland activities.

The woodland sits just a five minute drive from the historic coastal town of Rye. The expansive beach at Pett Level is also within easy reach and Hastings is just 15 minutes away.  

Ward is Brede & Udimore and the County Council is East Sussex
