Residents at a block of flats in Honiton are celebrating the success of a major project to revitalise a town centre woodland.
The Rookwood Association, which represents tenants at Rookwood House, in Exeter Road, secured funding 10 years ago to transform a neglected and overgrown wood which borders the property.
Supported by the landowners at the time, Devon and Cornwall Housing Association, and Honiton Town Council, the association set about planting native trees on the site following work to remove invasive sycamores, which were deemed a safety hazard.
