Lindow Common SSSI
Lindow Common in Wilmslow features one of the world’s most threatened habitats. The importance of Lindow’s heathland is such that it has been designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and a Local Nature Reserve.
As well as areas of heather, visitors can appreciate the other habitats which add to the Common’s richness - a fringe of woodland, wet mires and Black Lake. A surfaced path offers easy access to Black Lake and informal paths criss-cross the site.
