I sincerely hope that this won’t dilute the just becoming understood mechanism for nature enhancement, let alone lead to enhanced habitat degradation.

A centrally registered site creating wildflower-rich grassland and new hedgerow overlooking the Tyne Valley.

The Owner welcomes BNG Unit Buyers to be part of the site's story. With a public footpath crossing the land, images and potential signage are possible. As demand grows for businesses to showcase environmental efforts, this nature-rich site offers a strong opportunity for Buyer PR and credibility.

Planted a few weeks ago and in good time for the warm weather. The plants look in excellent health - obviously good stock - and have established well.

I do like it when clients send in photos of work-in-progress - I wish more of you would - hint 😜 but here some scrub planting being carried out, again at Sheriffhales 🌳 Why does it always look so nice down there?!

A new native woodland near Sherriffhales has just gone in adjacent to a Priority Habitat Deciduous woodland.

Planted with whips in 1.5m tree guards to help protect against the resident deer population, the species planted because of the damp ground are Bay Willow Salix pentandra, Alder Alnus glutinosa and Silver Birch Betula pendula. Whilst generating nearly 3BU, the trees will also serve to mitigate some of the nutrient runoff from the above arable land.
