    Warfield Environment Group (WEG) AGM Minutes Wednesday 20th July 2016 8.00 pm at Claire Wallen's House Present: Sheila Collings, Mark Collings, Catalina Estrada, Adrian Haffegee, Annie Hill, Amanda Luffrum, Martyn Towle, David Calcutt, Claire Wallen & Richard Wallen Apologies: Dave French & Sara Watson 1. Review of the Chairs report looking back at the WEG activities and achievements over the last 12 months, detailed below: The Conservation / Rhododendron Clearance Days - Hayley Green Wood - Nov ‘15 & Jan ’16: - We had a much better uptake than previous conservation days at both events and we were able to clear a considerable amount of rhododendron bushes/trees and plant more trees, mostly Hazel, donated by The Woodland Trust. Tree Survey Events – Aug ‘15 & Apr ’16 & members measuring trees individually: - Collectively the group has surveyed and recorded 75 trees – many of them oaks but other notables including wild service tree, sweet chestnut and Wellingtonia. 2016 marks ‘Year of the Tree’ so Bracknell Forest Borough Council (BFBC) have been keen to promote and focus on trees in local urban areas of Bracknell. They are very happy with the tree surveys we have completed so far in Warfield. We discussed Frost Folly and Hogoak Lane as potential sites for future tree survey events. Newt Survey – May’16 – Thomas Lawrence Brickworks Newt Reserve: - We recorded 5 Great Crested Newts and 20 Smooth Newts. BBC Radio Berkshire attended the event. Adrian Haffegee received his Great Crested Newts Activities Licence this year which will enable him to run future newt survey events. More surveys planned at Thomas Lawrence Brickworks Newt Reserve and also Rachel’s Lake.

  • Jealott's Hill, Warfield Technical Summary
    JEALOTT’S HILL, WARFIELD TECHNICAL SUMMARY/OVERVIEW NOTE ON ECOLOGICAL CONSTRAINTS AND OPPORTUNITIES Executive Summary Development at the Jealott’s Hill site offers the opportunity to create extensive areas of new species and wildflower-rich mesotrophic grassland, through the reversion of arable land and through the diversification of existing improved grassland currently in agricultural use. Small patches of existing more diverse semi-improved grassland around the current research campus buildings could also form the basis of a significant project to create or restore new areas of ‘lowland meadow’ priority habitat; either through their retention and positive management in situ to promote enhancement, or through the use of the soil seed bank in these areas to diversify larger parts of the rural hinterland of the estate currently in agricultural use. Existing species-rich hedgerows can also be subject to positive future management using traditional conservation-friendly methods such as laying, with older hedgerows prioritised for retention within the layout, and new species-rich native hedgerows planted in conjunction with the proposals. Existing ponds can be subject to ecological restoration to improve their suitability for a range of species including aquatic invertebrates, amphibians, foraging bats and hunting Grass Snake. The habitats present both on site and in the wider area are likely to support a range of fauna of varying ecological importance including; amphibians, reptiles, breeding and overwintering birds (particularly farmland birds), mammals such as bats and Badgers, and invertebrate assemblages. The scale of the proposals and large areas of proposed Green Infrastructure being brought forward will provide the means to deliver new habitat for these species and this will be informed by further ecological survey work in due course.

  • Nuptown Character Area Nuptown Is a Small Scattered Hamlet on The
    Nuptown Character area Nuptown is a small scattered hamlet on the northern boundary of Warfield parish. It is defined as the area bordered by Bishops, Hawthorn, Nuptown and Cocks Lanes, which contains a mixture of ancient woodland, meadowland and arable fields. The area is designated Green Belt and mostly lies within the jurisdiction of Warfield Parish Council and Bracknell Forest Borough Council. Windsor and Maidenhead Borough Council administer the eastern part of the area. Nuptown is characterised by open fields, leafy lanes and woodland dominated by deciduous trees of which the Oak, Ash, Hazel, Prunus, wild service trees (nationally rare) wild pear and crabapple, abound. The woodland area contains many wild flowers, and the bluebell wood straddling Ashmore Lane is a significant feature. The land is heavy of clay and surface drainage is maintained by a network of drainage ditches that take the water into Chawbridge Bourne and via The Cut, eventually into the Thames at Bray. The land is mildly undulating rising 50 feet to the north at Cruch Lane. The rural features are conductive to walking and riding, and there are a network of footpaths and bridleways that are well used by visitors to the area. The characteristics of Nuptown, its designation as Green Belt and its location at the northern perimeter of Bracknell Forest Borough Council make it the ideal area to provide the “Countryside Experience” to the benefit of all and particularly those living in the nearby urban areas. i. The varied wildlife. A wide spectrum of bird life exists in Nuptown from Barn Owls to Herons, Birds of Prey and Nightingales.
