Today’s photo shows the footpath in the Monkey Woods …the woody footpath that links Shaws Drive to Queens Park. Obvious question is, why the name Monkey Woods?

….didn’t you mention monkeys in one of your other posts? Might be a connection? Just a thought.

I was told that it’s because of the monkey puzzle trees that are in the woods? Anyone know if this is true?
Don’t remember monket puzzle trees, could be wrong though! Many years (decades even) since I’ve set foot in the place. Thought I remembered someone mentioning monkeys from the old Sandhey estate though?
