South Colne Sub-Area 3
SOUTH COLNE DETAILED STRATEGIES SUB-AREA 3 South Colne character South Colne is characterised by flatter topography as the River Colne approaches its confluence with the Thames. Braided watercourses and flood meadows typify the landscape, which is dominated in aerial views by a series of large reservoirs, the product of historic gravel extraction industry in the area. The South West London Reservoirs are internationally significant for the populations of overwintering birds they support, some from as far afield as the Arctic. This area also includes Heathrow airport and the extensive associated transport infrastructure. In close proximity to the airport lie some significant heritage assets including Harmondsworth Barn, the largest timber- framed building in England. © Brian Robert Marshall CC Andreas Trepte, www.photo-natur.net Harmondsworth Barn River Colne flowing through Staines Moor Lakes and reservoirs important for SOUTH COLNE overwintering wildfowl DETAILED SUB-AREA 3 STRATEGIES © Stefan Czapski The Causeway at Staines Reservoir Ankerwycke Priory - home to the Ankerwycke Colne Brook at Wraysbury - important for Yew wildlife Colne & Crane valleys green infrastructure strategy 51 South Colne area strategy overview The strategy for South Colne and Heathrow associated opportunities for education and is to improve and repair the landscape and interpretation and new viewpoints. connectivity for people and wildlife, conserve INTERWOVEN RIVERS and enhance valuable ecological habitats and Water and biodiversity enhancements should aim promote access for all to new and improved to restore floodplains and focus on the benefits of RECREATION landscape destinations. natural landscapes to contribute to natural flood LOCAL + GLOBAL management in this low lying landscape.

Orthoptera Recording Scheme for Britain and Ireland
ORTHOPTERA RECORDING SCHEME FOR BRITAIN AND IRELAND Newsletter 25 - February 1999 Editor: John Widgery 2I FieldYiew Road Potters Bar Herts EN6 2NA Tel: 01707 642708 INTRODUCTION It seems incredible that another year has passed since the last newsletter (NL24). This current newsletter is inænded to update all readers of the most significant developments since then. Of course, those of you who take British Wildlife magazine may already be awarg tlrough my 'rWildlife Notes', of some of the information contained herein. The success ofthe scheme relies upon your endeavours and, once again, I am indebted to the many of you who have submitted records and also to Paul Pearce-Kelly, Rachel Jones and Bryan Pinchen for their contributions on rare species. SUMMARY OF HIGHLIGHTS In comparison with recent years, the summer of 1998 was disappointing, although parts of southern England did have some reÍlsonably warm and dry weather during August and early September which is probably the most important period for the breeding success of many species. It was, perhaps, not surprising that there were fewer records submitted during 1998 as compared with the previous yàr but, even so, there were still several thousand which involved a total of 349 new l0hn squares (including 68 post-1970 refinds). Of these, 195 (including 23 post-1970s) were for 1998, including first ever records for Roesel's Bush Cricket, Metrioptera roeselii, in the Channel Islands, Long-winged Conehead, Conocephalus discolor, in Cambridgeshire and Lesnets Earwig, Forfcula lesnei,in Worcestershire and also a national first for this latter species in lreland. Additionally, we had the most northerly yet records for Lesser Marsh Grasshopper, Chorthippus albomarginqtus. -

Godstone & Tilburstow Hill
point your feet on a new path Godstone and Tilburstow Hill Distance: 7 km=4½ miles easy walking with some inclines Region: Surrey Date written: 19-nov-2011 Author: Schwebefuss Date revised: 25-feb-2019 Refreshments: Godstone Last update: 19-jul-2021 Map: 146 (Dorking) but the map in this guide should be sufficient Problems, changes? We depend on your feedback: [email protected] Public rights are restricted to printing, copying or distributing this document exactly as seen here, complete and without any cutting or editing. See Principles on main webpage. Village, water, woods, meadows, bluebells in spring In Brief This walk is full of delightful surprises and a few ghostly secrets from history along the way. Because of the good tracks and the sandy paths, it is a good walk at any time of the year, although the tracks in the woodland are drier in summer. In late spring, the forest floors are decked with bluebells. There are no nettles, so shorts and any sensible clothing and footwear are fine, but in winter and early spring, boots are recommended. Your dog is welcome too. The walk begins at the Green in Godstone, Surrey, just off the M25, postcode RH9 8DU . If coming by car, park carefully anywhere round the Green. Note that the free Council car parks only allow three hours’ parking. If every space is full, park on the west side of the Green (Bletchingley Road, then left on Ivy Mill Lane). For more details, see at the end of this text ( Getting There ). Godstone has four “pubs” although one, the White Hart , is a Beefeater and another, the Bell , is an upmarket bar-restaurant (albeit with an attractive garden and patio). -
