Lord’s Wood is a woodland south east of Pensford; which largely consists of planted conifers. Some broad-leaved areas remain. A number of small streams flow northward through the wood, converging and then eventually meeting the River Chew to the north. There is a well-vegetated pond near the centre of the wood. Hunstrete Lake lies south east of the wood.
