Flora survey completed by Chris Kennedy, BTCV on 13th August,
2008.
We could not complete an accurate survey due to the weather but
did identify a small number of trees (willow-goat and crack,
sycamore, hawthorn, ash, and elder).
Any conservation work done in the future I would ensure more trees
are planted such as oak and silver birch.
Silver birch are excellent trees in terms of conservational value. I
would also plant some alders if possible as these will enrich the soil
greatly.
Wildflowers we found:-
Sneezewort
Redshank
White dead nettle
Mayweed
Shepherds purse
Red clover
Common toadflax
Common mouse ear
Scented mayweed
Common figwort
Great willow herb
Rose bay willow herb
Himalayan balsam
