These three areas are characterised by sloping wooded ridges overlooking valleys, with a network of footpaths.

Abinger Roughs, above the hamlet of Abinger, is an area of woodland with scrub, grassland, beech, conifers and a nature trail. Its name refers to the area's former use as rough pasture land.

The cross, close to Leaser's Barn, marks where Samuel Wilberforce, the Bishop of Winchester, fell off his horse and died in 1873. Charles Darwin often stayed at Abinger Hall in the 1870s, as the guest of Thomas Henry Farrer. They walked the Roughs together and Farrer helped Darwin's research by keeping a journal of worm activity.

Netley Park is made up of grazed parkland, pasture and woodland.

Piney Copse, a small mixed woodland, was bequeathed to the Trust by the novelist, EM Forster.
