Cheddar Gorge, Somerset
Cheddar Gorge, Somerset Place To Walk Location & Access: Cheddar Gorge is located at grid reference ST 471 543 (Sat Nav – BS27 3QF) next to the village of Cheddar (population 5,700). It can be accessed via the A371 from Wells, 7 miles to the south east. There are car parks in the village, and there are two car parks within the gorge itself at ST 474 545 and ST 468 540. First Bus serves Cheddar Gorge from Weston-Super-Mare, Axbridge, Wells and Street. Key Geography: Limestone gorge, tourist honey pot, caving and other adventure sports. Description: Cheddar Gorge is the finest example of a limestone gorge in Britain, lying on the southern edge of the Mendip Hills in Somerset. It is almost three miles long, and has a maximum depth of 137 metres. There is a near-vertical cliff-face to the south, and steep, grassy slopes to the north. Contrary to popular belief, Cheddar Gorge is not a collapsed cavern – but is a gorge cut by a surface river, and since left high and dry as drainage went underground. The gorge was formed by meltwater floods during the many cold periglacial periods over the last 1.2 million years. During these Arctic episodes, the development of permafrost blocked the caves with ice and frozen mud making the limestone rock impermeable. Snowmelt floods during the brief summers were then forced to flow on the surface, carving out the gorge in the process. During the warmer interglacial periods, the water flowed underground again through the permeable limestone – leaving the gorge dry. -

Ludgvan Neighbourhood Plan Local Evidence Report January 2018
Ludgvan Neighbourhood Plan Local Evidence Report January 2018 Introduction Neighbourhood planning policy and proposals need to be based on a proper understanding of the place they relate to, if it they are to be relevant, realistic and to address local issues effectively. It is important that our Neighbourhood Plan is based on robust information and analysis of the local area; this is called the evidence base. Unless policy is based on firm evidence and proper community engagement, then it is more likely to reflect the assumptions and prejudices of those writing it than to reflect the needs of the wider area and community. This Local Evidence Report presents a topic by topic picture in facts, local opinions and aspirations of what the Parish of Ludgvan is all about in 2017/18, so as to provide the ‘evidence’ on which to base the development of the Ludgvan Neighbourhood Plan. We have used a variety of authoritative sources and recent survey material to put this Report together. To keep it relevant and accessible we have summarised information. Should the reader want more information or background we have provided links wherever possible to the source document. Inevitably we have not found all the information we sought. You are invited to contribute additional material to our evidence base. If you have any additional recent and relevant facts or can provide authoritative opinion about land use-related matters in Ludgvan Parish, please get in touch with the Parish Clerk at: [email protected] At the end of each topic section is a Key Messages box that includes messages discerned from evidence gathered and presented either in this report or the relevant Ludgvan Background Paper prepared by the NP Steering Group and available to view on the Ludgvan NP website1. -

E-mail: . Phone (incl. country code): . Number of people in your team: 7 2. Project overview Title: Biodiversity restoration - can drones provide an accurate, efficient and safe survey method? Contest: UK Quarry name: Batts Combe Quarry, UK Prize category: ☐ Education and Raising Awareness (select all appropriate) ☒ Habitat and Species Research ☐ Biodiversity Management ☐ Student Project ☐ Beyond Quarry Borders 1/12 Abstract Drone technology is increasingly being used for scientific research and remote sensing as part of environmental monitoring. It has a wide range of applications, for example in agriculture, coastal erosion, animal tracking and land-use. It is increasingly being used in environmental monitoring, including ecological monitoring, alongside satellite images and aerial photography. It is a developing area with applications being trialled and refined, taking advantage of the high resolution images that can be captured. This project aimed to determine the efficiency and accuracy of ecological surveys undertaken using a drone compared to conventional survey techniques in monitoring biodiversity restoration within quarries. In many quarries, large stretches of benches are inaccessible or dangerous to access for ecological surveys, making it difficult to determine the success of biodiversity restoration or the extent of natural colonisation. Batts Combe is relatively unusual in that a number of quarry benches are accessible via an access track that cuts east-west across the quarry face. Both quadrat-based survey and drone-based survey work (through image capture, processing and analysis using ImageJ and Bio7) was undertaken on accessible study areas: quarry benches and adjacent donor and receptor meadow areas to determine the utility of drones in biodiversity (restoration) monitoring. -

Site Biodiversity Action Plan
Batts Combe Quarry Site Biodiversity Action Plan Prepared: August 2006 Updated: November 2018 July 2016 October 2013 Site Information- Batts Combe Quarry Site Name and Batts Combe Quarry, Cheddar, Somerset Location (incl. Grid ST 45870 54433 (site entrance) Ref.) Hanson Company Hanson Aggregates BAP(s) that will be Mendip Hills BAP, Wild Somerset (The Somerset targeted Biodiversity Strategy), West Somerset BAP, UK BAP Habitat(s) to be Calcareous grassland developed Lowland meadow Neutral grassland Lowland broadleaved woodland BAP species to be Dormice, Bat species including lesser and greater horseshoe encouraged Pearl bordered fritillary Cheddar pink Designated Natural Mendip Hills Area Background and Large carboniferous limestone quarry (c. 60ha excavation site description set in a total landholding of 180ha) located to the north of Cheddar on south slope of the Mendips just on the border of the Mendip Hills AONB. To the west lies The Perch SSSI (below) and to the east the site is bordered with pasture, woodland and scrub encroached grassland. The BAP was revised in 2013 after the majority of the 2006 targets were achieved resulting in The Perch SSSI condition changing from ‘unfavourable declining’ to unfavourable improving’, large amounts of scrub being cleared to favour grassland habitats, woodland management and planting carried out to favour dormice and a reduction of non-native nurse tree species. The BAP seeks to maintain the habitats restored and created through the 2006 plan and extend them through ongoing management and restoration. National The Perch SSSI lies within Hanson ownership and within Designations (SSSI, 500m of the quarry excavation. Designated due to its SAC, SPAs, calcareous grassland, woodland and notable species RAMSARs and NPs) including the lesser and greater horseshoe bat, dormice and within 500m Cheddar pink.
