    Buckinghamshire & Milton Keynes Biodiversity Action Plan Lowland Heathland Habitat Action Plan Lowland Heathland Key associated species Adder Noctule Bilberry Round-leaved Sundew Bog Bush Cricket Serotine Bat Common Lizard Skylark Dartford Warbler Small Copper Green Ribbed Sedge Small Red Damselfly Heath Spotted Orchid Stonechat Hobby Tree Pipit Ling White Sedge Meadow Pipit Woodlark Nightjar Lowland heathland is characterised both by the presence of dwarf ericaceous species such as heather, gorse and cross-leaved heath and by the typical gently undulating landscape forms associated with it. It is generally found below 300 metres in altitude, on nutrient-poor mineral soils. Areas of high quality lowland heathland are not solely composed of vast tracts of heather. They have an ericaceous layer of varied height and structure, with areas of scattered trees and scrub, bare ground, gorse, wet heath, bogs and open water. Lowland heathland is generally considered to be anthropogenic in origin, a product of traditional pastoral activities and the exercising of commoners’ rights such as bracken collecting, turf cutting, grazing, and firewood collection. For the purposes of this document ‘heathland’ will refer to dry heath, wet heath and valley mires where they occur. 1 Current status in UK Biological status 1.1 The lowland heathland that occurs in the British Isles is of a type found (with regional variations) only along the western fringes of continental Europe. The oceanic climate, characterised by mild winters and relatively high rainfall throughout the year, favours the formation of heathland habitats if the required acidic and nutrient-poor substrates are present. The range of species found on these western European oceanic heathlands are unique and can often be very diverse.

  • Carrington, Dora (1893-1932) by Ray Anne Lockard
    Carrington, Dora (1893-1932) by Ray Anne Lockard Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Dora Carrington with Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Lytton Strachey. Dora de Houghton Carrington was an English painter, designer and decorative artist whose life and relationships were complex. She is best known for her deep attachment to the homosexual writer Lytton Strachey, but she had affairs with both men and women. Carrington painted only for her own pleasure, did not sign her works, and rarely exhibited them, hence she was not well known as a painter during her lifetime. Even though she was a founding member of the Omega Workshop with Roger Fry, her decorative art also remained unknown to the public until the late 1960s. Born in Hereford, England on March 29, 1893, Dora Carrington was the fourth child of Samuel Carrington and Charlotte Houghton. When Dora was ten years old the family moved to Bedford where she attended a girls' high school and took extra art classes. Seven years later, in 1910, Dora won a scholarship to the Slade School of Art in London where she studied with Henry Tonks and Fred Brown until 1914. During her years at Slade, the artist dropped her first name, becoming known simply as Carrington, and cut her hair into a bowl cut. She was a successful student at the Slade School and was awarded several prizes during her years there. When Carrington was eighteen she met Mark Gertler (1897-1939), a fellow artist who had the most influence on her early years.

  • LACEY GREEN SCHOOL Joan West 2000
    LACEY GREEN SCHOOL My idea was to write about the school, but found the teachers’ log and the Inspectors’ reports told the story by themselves. I have resisted the temptation to add my own thoughts. “Step back with me and be caught up in the struggle to climb the educational ladder”. Feel for the teacher who asks “How can I teach 60 children in one small classroom all on my own, with ages from three to fourteen”. Some children walk over two miles to school. They arrive soaking wet but there is nowhere to hang their things let alone dry them. It is cold and dark. How can we succeed?” But this is a success story. It is social history. You will have to imagine the curriculum, heavy on religion. Just a taste on the first page for some swashbuckling stories. Although this is about Lacey Green it could be any little village. These teachers and children have me enthralled so that sometimes 1900 A.D. seems more real than the year 2000. -ooOoo- This booklet is dedicated to all who laid the foundations, against such odds, of the modern school that we know today as St. John’s Combined Church of England School, Lacey Green.

On the way to Kew Gardens for the ice skating today the 28th December on the Chiswick roundabout, I spotted a Red Admiral flying past. Then while waiting for the children to get their boots on at the ice rink another Red Admiral flew past, probably disturbed from it's hibernation from the massive influx of people, or the fact it was a very warm day for this time of year? If this is the result of global warming, well it's not all bad!! Helen George My father told me that he saw a butterfly in Bronte Paths, Stevenage this morning. I assume it was a Red Admiral (just hope it wasnt a wind blown leaf!. It was very warm today, with lots of insects and one or two bees in my garden but despite all my attention no butterflies appeared - Phil Bishop Tuesday 26th December I enjoyed today even more with a totally unexpected Red Admiral flying along the eaves of my house and then the neighbours, at about 10.45 this am - weather was grey, dull and 5C.

  • Green Space Strategy 2011 - 2016
    Green Space Strategy 2011 - 2016 January 2011 Green Space Strategy 2011 - 2016 GreenGreen Space Space Strategy Strategy 2011 2011 - 2016 - 2016 Our Vision In Dacorum, we aspire to protect and enhance our natural environment, heritage and habitats. With the involvement of the community, we will create attractive, sustainable, accessible and well-managed green spaces. Foreword Dacorum benefits from a tremendous resource of high quality parks and recreation areas, set within some of the most remarkable landscapes in the country. Our fantastic green spaces are one of the main reasons people choose to live, work, and visit here. This strategy sets out our commitment to manage and protect this legacy, to ensure it remains intact for current and future generations. The quality of some of Dacorum’s green spaces has deteriorated over time through the ageing of facilities and infrastructure, and new investment is required. This strategy gives us the impetus and tools to improve their quality and to help deliver what local communities want from their neighbourhoods. We will improve facilities, and encourage residents to become more involved in managing their local green spaces. We aim to balance the needs of the community with the demands on our service, working wherever possible to combat climate change and alleviate the pressures of the modern age. We have a number of challenges to face in the future, not least in providing enough homes for the community. This strategy provides a strong framework to help manage, refresh, and create new green spaces.
