Event Leader:Ian Bennallick
Location:
Meet at the entrance to the reserve entrance, SW of Week St. Mary at SX234963 at 9:30am for a 10am start. Parking is rather limited.
After all the survey work for operation hedgehog, this is a chance to visit this protected area of Culm grassland with the Botanical Cornwall Group. The reserve contains many special plants associated with the Culm measures, a rather precious type of habitat that has been lost from large areas of north Cornwall and Devon as farming methods changed.
Need to bring a packed lunch and plenty to drink. The site is relatively level but tussocky and wet after recent rain. Very open.
Equipment & Booking:
*For all our outdoor events, please dress for the weather, walking boots recommended, sometimes wellies are necessary. Always useful to bring notebook, camera/phone, binoculars, drink & a snack. Specific requirements are listed in event details.
Insect repellent and sun cream might be useful!
