Following the felling of the plantation coniferous woodland, this area will be replanted with native, mixed woodland with species-rich grassland.
This new biodiverse woodland provides better habitat connectivity for a range of wildlife species between the same type of woodland at the Susanna Blamire Pond and the William Paley Pond. Species rich grassland is of great ecological value, the mix contains wildflower species which will support a wide range of pollinators as well as act as a great habitat for various invertebrates, birds and mammals.
