Yorks Wood Yorks Wood is a Local Nature Reserve in Kingshurst, Solihull, England. It is an ancient wood of predominantly oak trees. The River Cole is located south of the wood and located within Kingfisher Country Park. ==History== The first mention of the wood is in 1456. It was stated as being owned by the Mountford family and being located within Kingshurst Park. The wood received its current name in the 19th century and by the 1920s, it was under the ownership of the Scout movement. In the 1970s, the fields surrounding the wood were sold to make way for housing development.〔 The wood was preserved in the 1960s when the Kingshurst Hall Estate was completed so that it could act as a buffer between the estate and other nearby estates.〔''The Town Planning Review'', page 30, volume 26 (April 1955-January 1956), University of Liverpool Department of Civic Design〕 Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council bought the wood in 1984 and designated it as a Local Nature Reserve in 1991.
