Birdlife in the forest is rich, the conifers and oaks provide good feeding opportunities for woodland birds such as tits and goldcrests. Birds of prey include red kites and buzzards, - both are frequently seen, hunting low in and around the tracks and rides. Birdsong in the spring is fabulous with blackbird, wrens and robins singing at their best for territory and a mate.

There is some dead wood lying within the wood and this is really important for invertebrate life – in turn supporting the creatures that feed on these, such as woodpeckers. A drain holds rainwater in the wetter moths of the year. This water source can be an important draw for wildlife.

There is evidence of roe deer trails running through the wood as well as scrapes, where they bed down for the night.

Goldsborough is a quiet and attractive village, close to Knaresborough and Harrogate which between them boast an array of attractions including the Turkish Baths, Valley Gardens, RHS Harlow Carr, Mother Shipton’s Cave and many more.

Evidence of early settlement in the village comes from a Viking hoard which was discovered in 1859 during construction outside the north wall of Goldsborough Church. Coins and artefacts dating from 700 to 1050 were found in a leaden chest including fragments of Viking brooches and arm-rings, together with 39 coins. It forms one of the largest collections ever discovered in the UK and is now held at the British Museum in London.

In the Domesday Survey of 1086 Goldsborough is referred to as "Godenesburg" and some fine Norman architecture can be found in St Mary's Church in the village.

In 1599 Sir Richard Hutton, a London lawyer, bought the land and built Goldsborough Hall on its current site. Daniel Lascelles, whose family eventually became the Earls of Harewood, bought Goldsborough Hall and the estate in the late 1750s and the entrance gates to the village date back to this time.
