2. Vision and Objectives

To develop your long term vision, you need to express as clearly as possible the overall direction of management for the woodland(s) and how you envisage it will be in the future. This covers the duration of the plan and beyond.

2.1 Vision Describe your long term vision for the woodland(s).

The SSSIs and SINCs of Bartley Heath, Hook Common and North Warnborough Greens form a relict wood pasture/wooded heath system that would once have formed a vital part of local life, providing grazing, panage, wood fuel and other resources to be gathered by local commoners. This historic landscape further extends off of the gravels of the Heaths through the greens proper of North Warnborough Green onto Greywell Moors, where grazing of the fen would have sat side by side the industrial mills of the river Whitewater. College Copse Farm and Bassets Mead SANG further extend this extensively managed landscape to create a significant area of land managed for the benefit of wildlife. Together these sites form a large wildlife corridor within the Lodden catchment. Future acquisitions will also be managed in a holistic manner to further extend and enhance this diverse living landscape. The plan looks to take a holistic approach to the management of these sites and aims to improve both undermanaged woodlands and open habitats within the context of a wood pasture system. Focused around the Commons of Hook, Bartley Heath and North Warnborough, this plan also includes both Greywell Moors SSSI, the woodlands of College Copse Farm and all of Bassets Mead (Site of Accessible Natural Greenspace, SANG) within its scope. Possible acquisitions are also considered where material. Over the last 25 years works have been undertaken to restore areas to heathland, open up some of the canopy to wood pasture, and restore Greywell Moors to open fen habitats. Grazing has been reintroduced too much of the area where suitable. Using a 1940s aerial photo (Map5a) as the basis of decision making, this plan looks to further enhance these sites' conservation value. Looking to manage their open, wooded and wood pasture habitats to create a dynamic matrix across the area. The plan also looks to afforest a small area of the semi improved grassland at Greywell Moors (GWM). This will act to mitigate against tree removal . Though not covered by this plan per-se, a meadow at Bassets Mead is to be left to develop into a wood meadow. Trees in these areas would be managed as pollards to further the reach of the wood pasture/wood meadow system and create wildlife corridors for a diverse range of species. Due to the SSSI status of GWM any planting here would be subject to NE consent. However initial consolation with David Le’Grice of NE has highlighted no reason this can not be undertaken. This semi improved grassland is of low conservation value and the benefit of wood pasture creation within the wider context of this plan should be taken into consideration. By the end of the plan Greywell Moors, North Warnborough Greens, Bartley Heath, Hook Common, College Copse farm and Bassets Mead will provide a matrix of fen, springs, ponds, streams, grasslands, scrub, woodland, glades, coppice and pollards which span a graduated change in geology from the chalk influenced habitats of the Hampshire Downs National Character Area (NCA), across the London Clay, and up onto

5 | Management Plan Template | I&R Team | 06/07/2018 V2.0

the superficial gravel deposits that dominate the geology of Bartley Heath and Hook Common which lie within the NCA of Thames Basin Heath and the underlying London Clay on which College Copse Farm and Bassets Mead sit. Ongoing management of the habitats will include coppicing, creation/management of pollards, rotational scrub management, canopy thinning, pond creation/restoration and river corridor management. A holistic approach to the management of these sites aims to create a dynamic matrix of micro and macro habitats across the whole area, enabling a great diversity of wildlife to flourish whilst ensuring that value in timber resource is recognised. In the woodlands of College Copse Farm the emphasis is to restore, hazel, sycamore and mixed coppice coups in College Copse and create chestnut and hazel coppice in North Runtens Copse. The aim of the management will be to provide fencing and hedging materials for the local estate as well as manage some coppice purely for wildlife, including doormouse. In some areas of College Copse a scruffy approach with simulated wind blows and collapsed willows will be undertaken to produce thick scrubby areas within the woodland. The alders of the pond edge will be rotationally coppiced to enhance the pond by enabling more light to its surface and provide flushes of floristic diversity on the banks. The sites streams and satellite ponds will be managed similarly. Non natives will slowly be removed from the woods with the exception of an Araucaria araucana tree which will be given room to thrive and become a curiosity. In North Runtens Copse, the less diverse and poorer woodland dominated by birch, will slowly be managed to create a Hazel and Chestnut Coppice. The majority of the birch and the non natives will be removed and the area slowly replanted with +- 4 coupes of hazel and 4 of sweet chestnut. Where oak trees are found these will be retained so produce standards and a small grove of beech in the centre of the site will be retained as will old ash stools, monitored for ash die back, willows will also be coppiced and or pollarded where appropriate. In conclussion plan seeks to set out how the Hampshire and Isle of Wight’s Hook Reserves can be enhanced, by restoring and maintaining heath, fen and grasslands, ensuring that pulses of scrub are tolerated and that the woodlands are managed to ensure income from timber and maximise their biodiveristy value, whilst also seeking to install management practices that enhance biodiversty and make management more sustainable. Taking advantage of the intimate mix and gradient of habitats that can exist due to the sites’ geological transitionary location. These will include: heath, fen, chalk and acid grasslands, wooded heath, wood pasture, wood meadow, mature woodland, coppice, pollards, glades, rides, scrub, ponds, streams and the river Whitewater. This will provide the opportunity for a diverse selection of wildlife to thrive. From invertebrates to reptiles and mammals this plan will allow for Meta populations to develop and flourish across the wider area and providing a link from the Hampshire downs to the habitats of the Thames Basin Heaths.

4. Woodland Survey

This section is about collecting information relating to your woodland and its location, including any statutory constraints i.e. designations.

4.1 Description Brief description of the woodland property

This plan extends over the whole of the Hampshire and Isle of Wights Hook Reserves. The plan has specifically been tailored to cover all of these sites due to their geographical closeness, their interdependance of management and to provide a complete picture at a landscape scale.

The "property" includes.

Greywell moors. (Sub Comps GWM 1-5)

An important fen system which sits near the head of the Whitewater river. With a large drop in graznig after WWII this site scrubed over and slowly circumed to scrub and woodland loosing much of its diverse open fen habitats. In recent years works have achieved great conservation gains, seeing much fen restored and managed by grazing once more. The ground flora of the site is varied and points to an interesting mix of open fen, pollards and coppice, with ancient woodland indicators found on hummocks alond side fen vegetation in neighboring wetter area. Further retoration to open habitats is desired but should take account of the intricate nature of this floral complexity, retaining suitable trees as pollards and ensuring ancient coppice stools are retained and not treated with herbicide. In fact the use of hebicide should be minimised with scrub being cut cyclicaly to provide a matric of small copses, scrub, ancient coppice stools and pollarded willows. This management will ensure maximium diversity within the site. Further felling to open habitats within the target fen areas could be offset with selective planting and pollard creation on the upper semi improved grasslands of the site that provide little conservation interest. Such planting would need permission from NE but would mitigate the removal of woodland on the open fen and would further enhance the wood pasture settign of the Hook Reserves and further enhance the wildlife corridor that these reserves create.

The site is managed by scrub bashing, small scale coppicing and is grazed all year with

8 | Management Plan Template | I&R Team | 06/07/2018 V2.0

numbers droping down to 3 in the winter to help remove rank vegetation from the fen and reach a favourable sward height. Some scrapes are planned for winter 2017-18.

North Warnborough Greens (Sub Comps NWG 1-4)

This site bridges the chalk bedrock of the Hampshire Downs and the gravels of the Thames Basin.

The southern green (NWG01) is a fine example of a fen meadow with fen vegetation grazing into wet meadow vegetation. Works to enhancve the site would include ongoing pollarding of riverbank and other scatterd willows. This area is grazed by a commoners cattle.

The north green (NWG02) has at some point been over grazed and is generally in poor condition. A project is underway to evaluate the site potential as a flood mitigation area, this project would be tailored to enhance the conservation status of the site. This area is grazed by a commoners cattle.

The northen part (NWG03) of the site is woodland and is more contigues with Bartley Heath, the influence of the chalk largeley having diminished and the underlying gravels being geologicaly significant. This area is managed as wood pasture and some thinning to open the canopy is needed as is management of sycamore. This area is grazed by a commoners cattle.

A small compartment (NWG04) outside of the grazed compartments recieves some scrub and vegetation mangement.Bartely Heath and Hook Commons (Sub Comps BH 1-4 & HC 1-3)

Hook Common and Bartley Heath. This expanse of common land surrounds juntion 5 of the M3, which in its construction detroyed a large area of open heath. As with many commons the site suffered from a cesation of grazing over the last century and as evidenced by Map 5a. Hook Common was probably always partially wooded and certainly more akin to a wood pasture/wooded heath than some of the less productive heaths of North Hants; the site still has potential for restoration of wooded areas to heath and or wood pasture. Although recent years have seen grazing restored and some areas reastored to open habitats there is still potential for more restoration of both of these habitats. The 1940s aerial photo provides a bench mark to work to and allows for evidence based management decissions on to be made. In line with the wood pasture nature of the site, selective polalding is taking place to create ancient trees of the future that are associated with such habitats.

Like many commons the site is pocked with gravel extractions which provide a diversity of epemeral pond habitats.

The site is managed as follows.

BH01 Grazed by cattle and ponies (new forest). Scrub bashing, scrape creation, pollard creation.

College Copse Farm

No all of this site comes under the remit of the Hook Reserves, the farm proper being outside of the remit of this plan. However College Copse and North Runtens Copse are within the remit of the Hook Reserves and form part of this plan.

College Copse, is a diverse copse with great diversity of ground flora. The site has obviously been worked in the past and has great potential as a coppice woodland. There has been some replanting of oak and ash after a previous timber extraction but no follow on work was undertaken and much of these trees were out shaded by birch and have died. The main focus of management here is to bring the coupes back into rotation and create structural diversity within the woodland.

Two main coppice coupes types exist within College Copse. Largely mixed coupes of birch, ash, cherry, willow and oak and largely hazel coupes. The mixed coups will be manged to provide tree hay for over wintering animals and will therefore be cut in late July/Aug to harvest shoots and leaves.

The site features a large man made deep pond which provides habitat for water fowl and a series of smaller ponds and ephemeral ponds which provide great opportunity for improvement for aquatic species. The large pond is deep and often turbid and has little emergent vegetation. Coppicing of alder around the pond edge is hoped to bring light in and improve this but longer term re-profiling of the banks to change the unnatural drop off may be considered to improve this.

This wood also has several non native species within it which will be removed over time. These mainly consist of a poplar hybrid. A monkey puzzle tree will be retained as a feature.

Internal fencing is used to protect coupes from deer which are seen within the wood. By using internal fencing the deer can be used to browse ride edges helping to maintain open space within the wood.

Runtens Copse is very different from Collge copse and has much less ground flora, the best of which is limited to the edges of the woodland. Recent thinning and coppicing has seen this improve. Much like college copse this wood was worked for timber at some point but no replanting was undertaken and the wood became chocked with dense birch re-growth which was probably responsible for a decline in ground flora.

Some non natives are again present including poplars and spruce. These will be

10 | Management Plan Template | I&R Team | 06/07/2018 V2.0

removed.

Some planting of chestnut has already taken place to create chestnut coppice for fencing stakes into the future.

Bassets Mead

This site is managed primarily as a Suitable Accessible Natural Greenspace (SANG) and as such its primary function is to provide dog walkers somewhere to walk other than the Thames Basin Heaths Special Protection Area. The site is quite diverse, consisting of dry and wet meadows, a small but diverse woodland which has many ancient indicators, some old defunct hedgerows managed as woodland corridors, ponds, reedbed, fen meadow, river and riparian habitat. The site is managed by winter grazing the meadows. The woodland corridors are having temporary coppiced glades opened up and, river restoration works are also being undertaken. In the upper meadow, BM02, oaks are being allowed to come on where they germinate to create a wood pasture into the future. These oaks will be managed as pollards.

Likelihood of presence High Impact Low Response (inc protection measures) Deer are a valued part of the flora and fuana of this SSSI woodpasture, wooded heath, heath, grassland site. Adding to the browsing pressure on site they help create thick brashy undergrowth and help dwarf the open habitat scrub. Their presence is a valued aspect of the site for the public and fitting with the wood pasture setting of the common land parcels of the wider management area. In the woodland of college copse they need more management attention. Coppice coupes will be fenced to exclude them from killing coppice stools. Their presence in the wood will be used to manage the rides helping to keep free of scrub for longer.

Great Britain and as these sites are not managed for commercial forestry their presence considered a problem at the site. However the interconection of favourable habitats of these and surrounding sites could lend to a future pine martin reintroduction.This could possibly help reduce numbers here and into the neighboring Butter Wood. Recent studies in Europe have shown that the habitat requirement is less stringent than previously thought.

They are part of the management strategy, helping to retain open habitats and dwarf scrub in the open habitats. They also benefit field trees by utalising them for cover and removing competative ground flora and add nutrients by dunging under them. The limited damage to trees by bark stripping or rubbing/trampeling is beneficial to biodiversity providing micro niches for other organisms.

This section requires a statement of intent, setting out how you intend to achieve your management objectives and manage important features identified within the previous sections of the plan. A detailed work programme by sub-compartment can be added to the Plan of Operations.

Management Obj/Feature Management Intention Increase and enhance open Targeting areas that were open heath in the 1940s, as heathland habitats. evidenced by map 5a, restore more of HC01,HC02, BH01 to open heathand & restore open heath habitats in BH03 & BH04, Undertake felling as a single clear fell or where appropriate as successive thinnings and subsequent clear fell so as to maximise timber value and resource use. Enhance open existing open heath by grazing, bare ground provision and scrub control. Increase and enhance wood Restore more of HC01,HC02, BH01 to wood pasture and pasture restore wood pasture habitat of BH03, BH04 and NWG01. Target areas that had a more open canopy in the 1940s as evidenced by map 5a. Restore to wood pasture by heavy thining woodland areas. Pollards/veteran trees An esential part of any wood pasture setting is its ancient and veteran trees. Idenitify trees suitable for the creation of pollards, young trees or previoulsy pollarded trees, naturally or unatural. Undertake a programe of pollard creation and management with the lomng term intention of harvested material being used for winter fodder. Late summer cutting of 2-3 year growth will provide young shoots and leaves full of nutrition for overwintering animals. This will be bound into faggots and stored for feeding out in winter. This process will create the veteran trees of the future. Glades and rides Enhance the ride network of the rides of CC01-14 and create rides within NRC. Create and enhance glades witin these two woodlands Create ride within HC01 to provide connection between north open habitats and intended restoration of small area of open habitats to the south of the site to

29 | Management Plan Template | I&R Team | 06/07/2018 V2.0

increase chance of movement open habitat species from north to south of the M3 in tandem with retoration of open habitats to BH03. Create glades within ungrazed woodland blocks H03 and BH02 to increase diversity. Maintain and enhance rides of BH04 and NWG01 by grazing and or scrub cutting and brushcutting where neccesary. Ponds Maintain, enhance, restore and create ponds across all compartments by opening up the cannopy, coppcing or pollarding, shading trees. Retain some shaded ponds for communites associated with such habitats. Protect stools where browsing pressure stops regeneration or pollard species suseptible to such presure. Create ponds buy identifying suitable locations and excavating material as necessary.

Mature woodland of Hook Maintain and enhance the mature woodland of HC01, Common Bartley Heath and HC02, HC03, BH01, BH02 BH03 by light thining of North Warnborough Greens canopy, haloing of mature crowded trees. Coppice woodlands of college Restore coppice woodland of College Copse. Thin copse farm. cannopy trees, retaining high wildlife value mature trees and remove non natives. Restore hazel coppice and create mixed coppice coupes on rotational basis. Protect coupes from deer by internal fencing of coupes, tollerate small deer presence to help maintain open rides and glades. Create chestnut and hazel coppice within North Runtens Copse by felling birch and replanting. Maintain and enhance standard oaks and grove of beech. Remove non native species. River whitewater Selectively polard riverbank trees to allow more light to reach the river. Pollard so as to make future management easier. Maintain willows into the future as ancient riverbank pollards. Install baffles to create areas of faster flow (riffles) suitable for trout spawning. Use hazel hurdles to manage dog access ares to river to minimise impact to river bank. Increase and enhance open Clear fell and coppice areas of woodland from the fen fen habitats whilst surface on Greywell Moors. Identify old alder coppice maintaining complex stools and willow pollards for retention in order to communites. maintain the wooded fen nature of the site, as evidenced by the presence of woodland indicators amoungst the fen vegetation of the site.

Pollard the trees once established to ensure their future as pollards and eventual veterans. Exclude animals from young trees by use of exclosures which will in turn create areas of longer sward and decrease grazing potential of imporved grassland increassing chance of animals grazing the fen. Wood meadow Develop BM02 as a wood meadow allowing for oak saplings to develop and pollard to produce open wood meadow pollards. Holt copse Undertake selective coppicing of alder and ash of BM05 to increse structure and diversity within the copse. Monitor regrowth to ensure that regentation of stools is succesfull. Riverside willows of North Coppice and pollard or reduce the crown of riverside Warnborough Greens trees to enhance river corridor and minimise risk of further catastrophic failure of large trees. Retain woodland stands across the site pollarding suitable trees to create veterans of the future. Alder stand North Coppice alder stand of NWG01 to realise value of Warnborough Greens timber and ensure safety of site as these crowded trees which are in decline and frequently collapsing. Manage into the future on small scalle rotational basis, enhancing ground flora potential and nesting habitat. Identify high value trees to retain as standards.
