This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… Foreword written by Tony Blair Open This directory was designed for people with a disability, though the information included will be useful to everyone. The Land of the Prince Bishops has some of the most stunning landscapes in Britain. From its high Pennine moorland in the west to the limestone cliffs of its North Sea coastline in the east, County Durham boasts an impressive variety of landscape for you to explore. Upper Teesdale, in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is home to England's highest waterfall, High Force. At Barnard Castle, on the banks of the Tees, you can explore the romantic ruins which gave the town its name, as well as the sumptuous Bowes Museum and the medieval Raby Castle with its majestic deer park. For people interested in wildlife and conservation there is much that can be done from home or a local accessible area. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, doing voluntary work, or getting yourself out into the countryside on your own, we hope you will get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside.

Winlaton Mill, Blaydon, NE21 6SF [email protected] Contents Introduction to the rare plants register Notes on plant distribution and protection The individual species accounts in alphabetical order Site Index First published 2010. This is the 2011, second edition. Improvements in the 2011 edition include- An additional 10% records, most of these more recent and more precise. One kilometre resolution maps for upland and coastal species. My thanks to Bob Ellis for advice on mapping. The ―County Scarce‖ species are now incorporated into the main text. Hieracium is now included. This edition is ―regionally aligned‖, that is, several species which are county rare in Northumberland, but were narrowly rejected for the Durham first edition, are now included. There is now a site index. Cover picture—Dark Red Helleborine at Bishop Middleham Quarry, its premier British site. Introduction Many counties are in the process of compiling a County Rare Plant Register, to assist in the study and conservation of their rare species. The process is made easier if the county has a published Flora and a strong Biological Records Centre, and Durham is fortunate to have Gordon Graham's Flora and the Durham Wildlife Trust‘s ―Recorder" system. We also have a Biodiversity project, based at Rainton Meadows, to carry out conservation projects to protect the rare species. The purpose of this document is to introduce the Rare Plant Register and to give an account of the information that it holds, and the species to be included.

The process is made easier if the county has a published Flora and a strong Biological Records Centre, and Durham is fortunate to have Gordon Graham's Flora and the Durham Wildlife Trust’s “Recorder" system. We have also had a Biodiversity project, based at Rainton Meadows, which until 2013 carried out conservation projects to protect the rare species. It is hoped that the “RPR” will act as a stimulus for local botanists to make special efforts to improve the database by recording these species. The register will be used to increase our understanding of the status and distribution of the rare species, and to aid and promote their conservation.

  • Walking North East JANUARY 2014 Cover Photo
    Walking North East JANUARY 2014 Cover photo. Leaving Roppa Plantation to start crossing the moor near Newgate Bank on the North York Moors. Back in the 1800’s this spot was the scene of a particularly gruesome murder. This walk will feature in a new book, 'Walking around Helmsley and Ryedale' which will be available later this year. Apologies are due for a lack of a newsletter in December. Unfortunately circumstances beyond our control meant that one wasn't issued. This has also meant that going out for a walk has just not hap- pened but with the way that the weather has been, that has not been a great loss as the chances of trench foot or developing webbed feet seems to have been a real possibility. The only consolation being is that at least we haven't had it as bad as some parts of the country, in particular Somerset, where any walking would need to involve the use of a wet suit and snorkel. But on the plus side, the fact that there wasn't a newsletter in December means that there is twice as many items in this edition. Much more to read while you look out the window at yet more rain. In particular, have a look at two items that concern developments and possible developments here at Trailguides. One is a little bit of unashamed market research, here your views are being sought on a possible direction that we may take regarding a new publication. The second item is to announce our latest guidebook, "Walking in Teesdale", which will be heading out to the bookshelves at the begin- ning of March.
