Dot Hill Local Nature Reserve

This lovely area of pools and wooded grassland is being much improved and enhanced. It looks to be well managed as a wildlife and recreational area, and certainly well used by local dog walkers!

Fields in this area are being managed with wildlife in mind, with flocks of small birds and a hunting kestrel on show. Well done whoever farms these fields.
