After a spell of hot sunny weather conditions were ideal over the weekend for making hay. Ian Todd very kindly cut and turned the grass, and an enthusiastic team gathered it up so that it could be taken away to be bailed. This year the Ragwort was removed, so we are hoping the hay will be suitable for animal fodder.
Before the field was cut the annual survey of plants and wildlife was carried out – the results can be found in the ‘Our Documents’ page on this site. Thanks to Marie Schoales for compiling this.
