TWO VALLEYS PARISH NEWS April 2018
TWO VALLEYS PARISH NEWS www.crosthwaiteandlyth.co.uk/twovalleys Serving the parishes of Cartmel Fell, Crook, Crosthwaite, Helsington, Underbarrow, Winster, & Witherslack April 2018 70p Holme Crag Garden Party INTRIGUINGLY beautiful gardens which took over 30 years to nurture from rock and rugged land are open on Sunday, May 20th in Witherslack. Featured in Tim Longville’s acclaimed “Gardens of the Lake District”, Holme Crag is opening its gates as a fund-raiser for St. Paul’s Parish Church. Appearing on television, loved my many who have visited the magical place, the garden is testimony to the late Jack Watson’s vision of ‘merely cultivating ecology’. A magnet for birds, wild animals and insects, this where a lovely, untamed landscape meets decades of graft, and Jack's passion for planting, to create a unique and beguiling spectacle. By late spring, pond-side astilbes and hostas may be pushing through, rhododendrons still flowering and Holme Crag’s Candelabra primulas in their first ascent. Many of the plants and trees were established to encourage wildlife and the garden is noted for a rich variety of birds. Please join us for cream teas, raffles, plants, cakes, white elephant, a selection of stalls and, of course, the garden exploration. Running from 2 to 5pm, entrance is £3, children free. Please follow parking guidelines.

National Character 19. South Cumbria Low Fells Area profile: Supporting documents www.gov.uk/natural-england 1 National Character 19. South Cumbria Low Fells Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper 1, Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention3, we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are North areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines East in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape England our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics London and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future. -
