Local Wildlife Site

Wildlife

This attractive, medium-sized park contains a number of wildlife habitats, mostly created over the last few years. An area of scrub has been underplanted with native bulbs and woodland wild flowers, and a loggery installed to provide dead wood for invertebrates. Wild flower meadows along the eastern edge of the park contain a colourful mix of cornfield annuals and perennial species; the latter will gradually take over as the meadows mature. Elsewhere, borders contain numerous native and nectar-rich flowers for bees, butterflies and other insects. A small pond supports breeding frogs.
