Cow Hollow Wood is located at Waterbeach and owned and managed by the Woodland Trust. The wood is publically accessible throughout the year. It was planted in 2000 as a millennium wood and includes willow, ash, alder, birch and maple. The Living Willow Bridge was conceived in 2012 by the Woodland Trust, Cambridge University Architecture Department and Smith and Wallwork Engineers as part of a project to create a new path through the wood and a new crossing over the land drain that runs through the wood.
