There seem to be several Forest Schools operating in Ham Common Woods, or one operating in several parts of it, and one of them has built this little enclave at the east end towards Latchmere Lane. I do not mind the trunk benches but the barrier looks both unnecessary and ugly.
I think it's the beginnings of a 'dead hedge' to provide shelter for wildlife - see link
