Former farmland planted up by the Forestry Commission in 2003. It adjoins the stream that runs down into Berwick Ponds and the Ingrebourne Marshes, which feeds a wetland at the southern end that is occupied by water voles. It also has a healthy population of bats. It is named after the Bonnett family who had farmed the land since the 1920s.
