Free, rustic parking for Coombs and Thornborough woodlands.
Thornborough & Coombs Woodlands Car Park is a small, unpaved gravel lot located on Thornborough Lane, Buckingham (MK18 2AH), serving the ancient Coombs and Thornborough woodlands. The facility accommodates about 25 vehicles, with no designated accessible bays due to uneven ground. Parking is free but limited to daylight hours only (approx. 06:0020:00 in summer); no pay-and-display or permits are required. There is no lighting, and no CCTV coverage, so visitors park at their own risk. A waymarked footpath leads directly into Coombs Wood Nature Reserve (0.1 miles), featuring boardwalks over wet areas. The gravel is raked monthly and topped up annually to maintain an even surface. Signs warn vehicles to avoid parking on adjacent verges to protect the woodland ecosystem. A small information board details local flora and invites visitors to follow the Heritage Trail linking Thornborough medieval village.
