Just to reply to the question about the work happening near Sandy Hill: The Trust is managing various contractors who are clearing scrub from the heathland areas - the aim is to reduce the dominance of gorse and scrub to restore more open heathland, which supports a whole range of rare wildlife. Where we can we are also using the opportunity to increase the width of some of the fire breaks and have opened up one old over grown fire break as well, with the recent summer wildfires in mind.
We have now finished the work in the Sandy Hill area but will be working on many other parts of the site over the next month.
Thanks.
