These woods have high conservation value because they are ancient ash and maple, and this habitat has sharply declined in extent since 1945. The woods have diverse flora and fauna, particularly invertebrates.[4]
There is access to Wistow Wood from Wistow Fen Lane, but Warboys Wood is private land with no public access.
