Buck Wood is one of seven Heritage Woodlands in the Gleadless Valley, which lies only 2 miles south-east of Sheffield city centre.
The valley is still remarkable for the way in which a network of open spaces has been retained, both within the development, and between it and neighbouring built-up areas.
It differs from other woodlands in the valley in containing a number of relatively large, south-facing glades which support a range of invertebrates requiring warm sheltered conditions.

 Gleadless.net - Information on South Yorkshire
Because Yorkshire as a whole covers some 15,000 sq km, it is naturally desirable to break the region up into more manageable localities.
While it is true that most inhabitants of the area who were around before 1974 will tend to be nostalgic for the old Ridings system, there is also a sense of independence in the region, if only by virtue of the shared industries and the shared valley.
That said, this independence is perhaps confined to the Don Valley area, at the expense of Barnsley (which sits more at ease with its former West Riding neighbours to the north).

Councillor Rosemary Telford was on hand, with kids and parents from the local area, to officially open the space on 25th June.
The project entailed developing an area at the entrance to Nether Spring Nature Reserve (off Spring Close Dell in Gleadless Valley), where children can play, and adults can sit and enjoy the nature reserve.
The completed scheme includes a curvy stone seating area, a bounce wall of railway sleepers, mounds and logs, wildflower seeding and talk tubes, which all allow children to come up with their own fun and imaginative games.
