You may have noticed slightly less colour in the wildflower meadow over the last couple of years, as grasses and undesirable species like stinging nettles have started to establish. We have decided that the best way to deal with this will be to clear the meadow and resow it. We had hoped that this would happen this spring, however the wet weather put  a stop to that, so we are now planning on undertaking the work in September, ready for flowers to come out next year. There will still be plenty of  wildflowers and associated biodiversity this year, but you will hopefully see a big improvement next year. We also hope to replace the bench at the same time.
