Avon - Flora
Leigh Woods is known for its exceptionally rich limestone rock flora which includes nationally rare plants such as Bristol rock-cress and western spiked speedwell. Honewort, fingered sedge, dwarf sedge, dwarf mouse-ear, and rock stone crop are also rarities that can be found in the area.
Little–robin and lesser meadow-rue, both of restricted national distribution, have been recorded at the gorge, fly orchid and bee orchid have also been recorded here. Angular Solomon’s seal occurs in the woodland.
