Moments from the town centre in Rugby’s northern suburbs there’s a conserved parcel of old countryside. The Swift Valley Nature Reserve is on the River Swift, and has wet and dry woodland, marshes, pasture and hedges. There’s also a fascinating disused arm of the Oxford Canal, with watercress and yellow water lilies growing on its muddy edges. The reserve was once arable farmland, and retains its ridge and furrow plough markings. The land has long since turned into pasture for cows and is bedded with wildflowers like goat’s beard and meadow crane’s bill in summer. The damper woodland by the river has lovely willows and alders, while away from the water are oaks footed by bulbs like snowdrops and daffodils that flower in early spring.
