Introducing the S20 Wildlife Corridor – Summary Paper an Alternative Proposal for Owlthorpe Fields: Towards a Heathier South East Sheffield Introducing the S20 Wildlife Corridor – Summary Paper An alternative proposal for Owlthorpe fields: Towards a heathier South East Sheffield Owlthorpe Fields Action Group & Dr Patrick Harrison (Department of Biological and Marine Sciences, University of Hull) Summary This document presents a summary of the vision for a wildlife corridor in South East Sheffield for the health and wellbeing of the communities in the Beighton, Mosborough and Birley wards by joining up local wildlife sites and, importantly, incorporating Owlthorpe Fields which has been rewilding for 20+ years. Aims and Outcomes The aim of the S20 wildlife corridor is to link up and enhance sites of ecological interest forming a 2-mile long wildlife corridor within the Beighton & Mosborough wards of South East Sheffield. We believe the incorporation of Owlthorpe Fields (including the existing Local Wildlife Sites) into the wildlife corridor and linking it to Westfield Plantation, Waterthorpe Park, Waterthorpe Meadows and Beighton Ponds (Fig. 1), is a far more positive vision than the destruction of this ecologically rich, rewilded location for housing, especially considering the area already has substantial housing with its associated congestion. By taking an interdisciplinary approach and linking ecology, community health and school attainment together, we believe we can have a positive impact on the lives of local people. The wildlife corridor has four aims: 1. To become a space for the benefit of the local community, on their doorstep, where people can engage with nature and which can provide relaxation and exercise to benefit both physical and mental health; 2. At the local level, enhance and link several wildlife habitats such as meadows and wetlands to increase the biodiversity of flora and fauna in the area; 3. Work with local schools, the Sheffield & Rotherham Wildlife Trust (SRWT), along with our regional Universities to develop outdoor classrooms for local schools in all aspects and at every level of the curriculum; 4. Work with Sheffield City Councils (SCC) social prescribing ‘People Keeping Well’ network and SRWT to develop nature prescriptions to improve the health of the local community. By meeting these aims, we believe the following seven outcomes can be realised: 1. Increased school attainment (Aim 3) 2. A positive change in child physical health (Aim 1, 3) 3. A positive change in child mental health (Aim 1, 3) 4. Increased local cohesion / participation in community schemes (Aim 2, 4) 5. A positive change in wider community mental health (Aim 1, 4) 6. A positive change in wider community physical health (Aim 1, 4) 7. Increased biodiversity in the area (Aim 2) Figure 1: Promotional poster emphasising the areas to be linked together to form the S20 wildlife corridor with a selection of interventions that could be made to enhance each area and provide better linkage Evidence for Nature-Based Health and Education Interventions As many will attest, the Covid-19 crisis has highlighted the importance of engaging with the natural world for our physical health, mental health and wellbeing. Analysis has shown that increased exposure to greenspace was associated with a decrease in a number of medical conditions in adults including the stress hormone cortisol, blood pressure and type II diabetes. A number of other studies suggest that projects like the S20 wildlife corridor, developed essentially on peoples’ doorsteps, would allow short, regular visits to nature and be very beneficial in reducing stress and anxiety at the community level. For children, a 2011 UNICEF report on child wellbeing showed that being outdoors listed in the top three things that make children happy. There is evidence supporting the concept that being in nature decreases symptoms of inattention in children and that access to nature provides a buffer to the psychological stress of major life events with this effect more prominent in disadvantaged children. As the 2019 indices of multiple deprivation data (IMD) show, several areas along the proposed corridor rank within the bottom 30% in England; we believe the S20 wildlife corridor has real potential to have a positive effect on child mental health. Importantly, there is also clear evidence of increased school achievement with increasing engagement with the natural world, particularly in the outdoor classroom setting as summarised in Natural England’s 2016 report entitled ‘Links between natural environments and learning’: “Spending time in the natural environment as a resident or a visitor – improves our mental health and feelings of wellbeing. It can reduce stress, fatigue, anxiety and depression. It can help boost immune systems, encourage physical activity and may reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as asthma. It can combat loneliness and bind communities together”. “Playing and learning outside is a fundamental part of childhood, and helps children grow up healthy. Some children are lucky enough to have a family garden; others not, and it is important that we find other ways to give them better access to the great outdoors. We know that regular contact with green spaces, such as the local park, lake, or playground, can have a beneficial impact on children’s physical and mental health.” Health and Education Statistics for Communities Surrounding the Proposed S20 Wildlife Corridor The health and education statistics from the wards surrounding the S20 corridor show this initiative could have a real benefit to our communities. Some areas along the proposed corridor rank within the bottom 30% in England in terms of multiple deprivation indicators, with some in the top 10%. As deprivation is a key determinant in our health and wellbeing, it is unsurprising that these areas are suffering with a large percentage of people in poor health and a reduced life expectancy when compared to other areas of Sheffield. Healthier communities would mean less intervention by the healthcare sector and the Local Authority which could lead to significant financial savings. Unfortunately, it is not just the life expectancy and health of the surrounding population that is suffering. Areas along the corridor (Waterthorpe for example) are in the bottom 20% for education, skills and training. Similarly, data for the Mosborough ward shows a statistically significant worse outcome for GCSE Achievement (5A*-C including Maths and English) compared to the national average. As lower levels of education and training lead to higher levels of deprivation in future years, there is also a clear need to develop education-based initiatives than can mitigate and improve this downward cycle. We accept that the wildlife corridor will not provide a silver bullet to healthcare inequalities in SE Sheffield, however we do believe that by acting upon the multiple determinants of health (exercise, education and air quality through active travel routes to anchor institutions and increased planting) the corridor will play an important role in mitigating healthcare inequalities in the area. S20 Wildlife Corridor: What We Would Like to See Ecological Changes Primarily, the proposal will require the five ecologically distinct areas to be preserved with the largest of these individual sites, Owlthorpe Fields, to be saved from development by Sheffield City Council (SCC). Full professional ecological assessments will be required and the results from this combined with existing data held by the Wildlife Trust and SCC. Both Owlthorpe Fields Action Group and Friends of Waterthorpe Park have been invited to join the National Lottery funded D4N which will use the Adaptive Ecological Monitoring Framework (AEMF) along with local people to gather ecological and biodiversity information. Once each area has been assessed, by engaging with SCC ecologists, SRWT along with specialist experts in our regional universities, we can enhance the biodiversity of these areas by undertaking site specific interventions. These would include for example, introducing wetlands, meadows, native hedging or managing land differently, such as coppicing woodland. The changes in biodiversity and species numbers will be monitored continuously by the SRWT, the D4N project along with iNaturalist that individual groups (Owlthorpe Fields Action Group and Friends of Waterthorpe Park) have already set-up. These community-based citizen science projects will also feed into the health aims of the corridor in terms of developing social / nature prescriptions. Internet-linked camera traps could be placed around the sites to monitor the frequency of small mammal visits, which would be available to view online by the wider community and which would also be streamed to local schools to use as a learning resource in the classroom. There is also an opportunity to develop an ‘outdoor lab’ for Undergraduate / Masters level project students (ecology, health, education) with local universities (Sheffield Hallam University, University of Sheffield and University of Hull). Dr Harrison would connect our communities to these local higher education institutions. Education Focused Aims Along with SRWT, Dr Harrison and Friends of Waterthorpe Park (FoWP) are already working with two adjoined local schools, Waterthorpe Infants and Emmanuel Juniors, who are within close proximity to the Waterthorpe Park site (500m). Dr Harrison and FoWP are currently writing a proposal for a Grant from Biffa, to develop an outdoor classroom whereby the children can explore the park and its developing and varied natural ecology (woodland, meadows, wetlands)

    Downloaded from http://pygs.lyellcollection.org/ by guest on September 28, 2021 mittee, for their kind assistance in making the arrangements for the meeting. The following communications were then made to the Society :— ON THE DISTURBANCES IN THE DISTRICT OP THE VALLEY OF THE DON. BY REV. WM. THORP, OF WOMERSLEY. Upon the last visit of the Society to Sheffield, I had the pleasure of describing some of the geological features of the neighbouring district, and particularly those of the country between Rotherham and Sheffield. I have again taken the liberty of giving a brief mining notice of the disturbances of the same district, because they are not only of such enor­ mous magnitude as to be of great interest to the geologist, but a knowledge of them is necessary to the successful min­ ing operations of that neighbourhood. Upon the former occasion, it was contended by one party that not only were the strata on the North side of the Don elevated above those of the South side, to the amount of 600 yards in vertical height; but that also there had been a horizontal lateral movement of the beds of the North side, in an eastward direction, to the length of five or six miles.^ * The proofs then adduced in support of a lateral movement were—1. That the various beds come from the North, up to the edge of the valley of the Don, but do not preserve their Northerly and Southerly direction across the valley, but are found several miles to the West; e. g.^the Silkstone coal ranges to Dropping Well, near Kimberworth, and is not found at the same depth until we arrive six miles West, at SheflSeld town.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Beauchief in Sheffield is a beautiful hillside at the foot of which, near the river Sheaf, and on the still wooded south-western fringes of the city, are the remains of the medieval abbey that housed, from the late twelfth century until the Henrician Reformation, Augustinian canons belonging to the Premonstratensian order. Augustinian canonries were generally modest places, although for reasons that have been persuasively advanced by the late Sir Richard Southern, this fact should never obscure the breadth of their significance in the wider history of medieval urban and rural localities: The Augustinian canons, indeed, as a whole, lacked every mark of greatness. They were neither very rich, nor very learned, nor very religious, nor very influential: but as a phenomenon they are very important. They filled a very big gap in the biological sequence of medieval religious houses. Like the ragwort which adheres so tenaciously to the stone walls of Oxford, or the sparrows of the English towns, they were not a handsome species. They needed the proximity of human habitation, and they throve on the contact which repelled more delicate organisms. They throve equally in the near-neighbourhood of a town or a castle. For the well-to-do townsfolk they could provide the amenity of burial-places, memorials and masses for the dead, and schools and confessors of superior standing for the living. For the lords of castles they could provide a staff for the chapel and clerks for the needs of administration. They were ubiquitously useful. They could live on comparatively little, yet expand into affluence without disgrace.
