Petersham Common Woods is a wildlife haven with a rich variation of plants and an extensive history. Spanning over 17 acres with paths connecting Petersham to Richmond, there is much to discover. Check out our History, Flora, Fauna, and Newsletter pages to learn more.

The YouTube link above is to a 1 minute version of the 2025 drone video of the woodland. The 5 minute narrated version is on the home page. This shorter version has no narrative, just the sounds of birds and nature.
