Representation ID: 2220

Received: 19/03/2021

Respondent: Mrs Eileen Holmes

Representation Summary:

This village green area ( enclosed on one side by a stream and 200 m from 2 copses, a farm and barn) is a perfect example of a conservation corridor.
In 2019 two deer sheltered and grazed here, 2020 there were three, in 2021?
A rare barn owl lives in the barn and hunts over the field.
The two copses support nesting birds including Jays and Woodpeckers; the deer graze early morning, pheasants, rabbits during the day and in the evening bats and the occasional fox.
This green area is more than a field; it’s a diverse environment worthy of preservation and an asset to the village.
