[edit] Nature Reserve
Near the church in Stillington, there is a renovated piece of land, that used to be a waste dump. It has been turned (in 2004) into Stillington Forest Park Local Nature Reserve, which has two main ponds, one of which contains species of freshwater fish (roach, rudd, mirror carp, tench, perch, common carp, crucian carp), and is a popular angling spot. There is a wooded area towards the top of the hill, which has a pathway leading through it, and is a wildlife hotspot[citation needed]. The landscape is mainly grassland, with patches of woodland.
[edit] Education
The William Cassidi Church Of England Primary School has around 100-150 pupils, aged 4–11.
