A habitat for a diverse collection of wildlife.
The Millennium Green has a rich diversity of grasses and flowers. We are trying to encourage the land to return back to wildflower-rich pasture land, and to this end we have sheep grazing in the upper field.
There is a fine collection of insects and we are fortunate to have a colony of Marbled White Butterflies that can be seen in spring and early summer.
Birdlife is ever present with its accompanying bird song. We place about 30 nest boxes throughout the site to encourage them
Mammals are also present, with squirrels and rabbits frequently seen. Some people have been lucky enough to see a deer. Field voles have been seen in both fields and occasionally foxes, weasles and stoats.
Finally do not overlook the fungi: again, we are lucky to get good displays of these in autumn.
To see more take a look at our photos pages and the Nature and Wildlife drop down boxes.
