Local Wildlife Site

Wildlife

The cemetery is predominantly amenity grassland with perennial rye-grass and red fescue. There are more species-rich areas with ladies bedstraw, common knapweed and cat's-ear. Scattered planted trees are dotted around the site and a line of hybrid black poplars form the southern boundary. Kingston Hill Open-space, a northern extension to the cemetery, also supports regularly cut amenity grassland. A mixed species hedgerow forms the northern and western boundary. The land to the west of the cemetery is characterised by tall herb vegetation with a few mature boundary trees and some semi-improved grassland. The hedgerows and mature trees on site provide nesting opportunities for birds and possibly bats.
