A charity which owns part of an ancient Derbyshire woodland has bought an extra 8.26 acres of land for the community to benefit from.

Grith Pioneers has owned 100 acres of Shining Cliff Wood in Ambergate since 1932 and successfully bid at auction for a section of farmland adjacent to the current site.

Michelle Kershaw-Wright, trustee of the charity, said they managed to raise £103,000 and bought the new land for £102,000.
