Overview
Eaglesbush Valley is a steep-sided wooded valley located in the Melincryddan area of Neath. The site, declared a Local Nature Reserve (LNR) in 2008, is a mix of ancient semi-natural woodland habitats dissected by the Crythan brook. The 11 hectare site is protected in recognition of its importance for biodiversity and to the local community.
Eaglesbush Valley is a hidden gem in an urban environment. Visitors and residents could be forgiven for walking by, unaware that the unassuming entrance quickly leads into an area rich in biodiversity.
