  • Blackheath Village Enhancement Plan
    Blackheath Village Enhancement Plan This document sets out the long term management objectives and guidelines for Blackheath village. The plan has been developed with local involvement and it is intended that it should be the first point of reference for all those with an interest in the village. Background Information For the purpose of this plan ‘the village’ has been defined as the verges running through Blackheath Lane; the verge to the village sign on Littleford Lane and Sample Oak Lane up to the junction with the Downs Link. The private road to Aston House and the Downs Link to Tangley Way are also included. A margin of common land directly adjacent to the rear of the houses in the village has also been included, as has the cricket pitch (appendix I). Individual private residences are excluded. Site Status The majority of the area is designated as common land (CL 179 and CL7) which is protected by various Acts of Parliament. In addition the common land is covered by the Commons Registration Scheme and bye-laws (appendix II). The village and surrounding land lies with the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and Area of Great Landscape Value (AGLV). The central part of the village has been designated by Waverley Borough Council as a Conservation Area (Appendix III) for its historical and architectural interest and areas around the village hall and war memorial have been identified as Areas of High Archaeological Potential (appendix III). The majority of properties back directly onto Blackheath Site of Special Scientific Interest (appendix IV).

Gomshall, map reference TQ 089 477, is in Surrey, 10km east of Guildford. Features There is much that is ancient, beautiful and surprising to be enjoyed on this walk. It starts in Gomshall, passing some of the pleasant buildings on its outskirts, before crossing fields to the interesting church and village of Shere on the Tilling Bourne stream, a place packed full of fifteenth and sixteenth-century timber- framed buildings. Then the walk continues past massive gnarled trees in Albury Park and through the pine woods of Blackheath Common. From there, the route follows the Downs Link path. There's an optional detour to visit Chinthurst Hill Tower, a folly with a view. The final stretch is along the River Wey into Guildford for tea at the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre. Short stretches of the Downs Link can be muddy. If you like horses this is a walk for you, as the route passes through several stud farms and a riding school. The original lunch pub on this walk has closed. Alternatives are now included in these Directions. Walk With the closure of the Villagers pub the only alternative after Shere is the William IV in Little London, which comes after Options just 3½ km on the standard walk.

  • Hedychrum Nobile (Scopoli): a Jewel-Wasp New to Britain and Distinct from H
    BR. J. ENT. NAT. HIST., 29: 2016 197 HEDYCHRUM NOBILE (SCOPOLI): A JEWEL-WASP NEW TO BRITAIN AND DISTINCT FROM H. NIEMELAI LINSENMAIER (HYMENOPTERA: CHRYSIDIDAE) 1 2 D. W. BALDOCK &R.D.HAWKINS 1Nightingales, Haslemere Road, Milford, Godalming, Surrey GU8 5BN [email protected] 230D Meadowcroft Close, Horley, Surrey RH6 9EL [email protected] ABSTRACT The separation of Hedychrum nobile (Scopoli) into two distinct species, H. nobile s.s. and H. niemelai Linsenmaier, is provisionally accepted and characters distinguishing the two species are given. Hedychrum niemelai is a long-term resident of Britain while H. nobile is a recent arrival that has spread rapidly since its first record from Surrey in 1998. Distributional data and field observations suggest that the preferred host of H. nobile is Cerceris arenaria (L.) and that the hosts of H. niemelai are C. quinquefasciata (Rossi) and C. ruficornis (F.). HISTORY IN EUROPE In the late 1940’s the Dutch entomologist P. M. F. Verhoeff was working on the genus Hedychrum in order to make a clear separation of the three species, H. gerstaeckeri Chevrier, H. rutilans Dahlbom and H. nobile (Scopoli), that were present in the Netherlands. Little attention had previously been paid to the the genitalia of Chrysididae but he dissected males and was surprised to find two distinct forms of the genitalia of H. nobile. He then received a letter from a Finnish entomologist, P. Niemela¨ , who had made the same discovery, and then a further letter in which Niemela¨ reported finding two corresponding forms of the female based on a single small but significant underside character.

BOAs are those areas where targeted maintenance, restoration and creation of Natural Environment & Rural Communities (NERC) Act ‘Habitats of Principal Importance’, ie. Priority habitats will have the greatest benefit towards achieving this aim. Realising BOA aims will contribute to UK commitments to halt biodiversity declines, and their recognition directly meets current National Planning Policy Framework policy to plan strategically for the enhancement of the natural environment; to be achieved by providing net gains for biodiversity and establishing coherent ecological networks that are more resilient to current and future pressures (para. 170). Designation of BOAs also fulfils NPPF requirements to identify, map and safeguard components of wider ecological networks, and areas identified for habitat management, enhancement, restoration or creation (para. 174).
