Local Wildlife Site

Wildlife

This site is in the north end of a public park which was once managed more formally. Crushed glass has been laid down on most of this area recently which has encouraged a diverse range of wasteland plants to colonise. This colourful mixture of plants includes rosebay willowherb, wild carrot, creeping thistle, Guernsey fleabane, black medick, small-flowered evening-primrose and red campion. This vegetation provides a very good resource for invertebrates. The site also includes a small area of meadow contains meadow barley, common bent, common knapweed and yarrow.
