The works forming part of this project will use specialised management practices to further enhance the grasslands and protect and maintain a predominantly ash woodland. The landowners have extensive practical experience in managing this land They have done so successfully for the last 15 years and have employed techniques such as conservation grazing which will be essential to the works planned over the next 30 years.
