A limestone woodland with Spring woodland flowers and many common birds.

Coed Porthamel reserve is in two sections around Porthamel Farm; Coed Chwarel to the East and Coed Brain to the North. It is owned by Isle of Anglesey County Council and managed by NWWT. Coed Chwarel is dominated by mature woodland although there are also areas dominated by bramble alongside open glades. Here a wide variety of plants can be found in shallow soils on limestone. Coed Brain was dominated by sycamore but recent felling is allowing the growth of ash saplings.
