Survey of species in the

HAM HILL COUNTRY PARK

for the

South Somerset District Council

by members and friends of the

Yeovil & District Wildlife Recording Group

& SSDC Countryside Officers

This survey was started in 2004 with the object of recording species found within the Ham Hill Country Park.

For the purposes of wildlife recording the area was split into four separate sites: the so-called Northern Spur, that is the area more or less comprising the original Ham Hill Country Park, and the areas added to the country park from 1996 onwards, namely Plateau Fields, Witcombe Valley (including Horse’s Wood) and Pit Wood.

Lists have been prepared of: Mammals Reptiles & Amphibians Birds Invertebrates Flowering plants Ferns Fungi Lichens - based on a survey by V. J. Giavarini

To be added: Mosses & Liverworts

Members are asked to record any species seen within the Park and send that list to the Recording Group so that a continuing up-date of the records can be made.

Records will be passed to the SSDC and the Somerset Environmental Records Centre to ensure the best possible use is made of them.
