Description

This verge is being managed to help wildlife as part of the County Council/Parish Council Verges Biodiversity Project. Mowing will cease between April and August to allow the grasses and wildflowers to grow and bloom. In some cases, verges may also have additional native wildflower species added, either as seed or as plug plants.

The verge was surveyed in June by NatureSpot but we would welcome any wildlife records from the community, whether plants, animals or fungi. All species recorded on the verge are included on this page.

By managing grassland verges as wildflower meadows they will support a much greater diversity of wildlife. Different species come and go throughout the year so we will get a much better understanding of the wildlife value of this site if local residents add records of what they have seen. Please take a photo if possible and include it with your record, using NatureSpot's Submit Records form (nb. you need to set up an account first, which is free and quick). Once submitted, your records and any photos will appear on this page!

A list of all the species found at the site, together with any images taken, appears below.

Note: the verge boundaries shown on the map are indicative, please refer to the signage on the ground for the exact location.

 

The records and images below may include those from adjacent sites if the grid reference submitted with these records overlaps the boundary of this Wild Place.
