A PARISH council is now the owner of a 20-acre wood and picnic area after a ceremony was held to mark the event.
Haughley Parish Council was handed control of Gallowsfield Wood, which was transferred as part of a Suffolk County Council programme, yesterday.

The wood lies in the parish of Harleston near the A14.
