Croy Hill has some of the best preserved sections of the Antonine Wall. This remarkable structure stretched 37 miles between the Firth of Forth and the Firth of Clyde and, for around 20 years, marked the northernmost frontier of the Roman Empire.
However, a brush with history isn't the only reason to visit these pretty woods. Butterflies, red squirrels and great crested newts call Nethercroy home and, in summer, the meadows are full of wildflowers, including the sweetly-scented lesser white butterfly orchid.
