Hardwick Lodge Meadow South Extended Phase 1 Survey Report P.E. Tornberg Red House Lane, Hannington Ref: 15-3394 116 Version: 2 Date: April 2016 Author: Samantha Hodgson Reviewer: Joanne Underwood Address: 7-8 Melbourne House Corbygate Business Park Weldon Corby Northamptonshire NN17 5JG Tel: 01536 408840 Executive Summary Lockhart Garratt Ltd was commissioned by P.E. Tornberg to carry out an Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey including desk study for land at Red House Lane, Hannington, Northamptonshire. There are two statutory designations within 2km of the Site, and nine non-statutory designations, the closest being the Hannington Ponds PWS located approximately 130m to the south-west of the Site. A range of protected mammal and bird species were identified within 2km of the Site by the desk study. The Extended Phase 1 Survey was undertaken on 6th April 2016. The habitat within the Site consisted of mixed plantation woodland, amenity grassland, standing water, hardstanding, scattered trees and hedgerows. The report considers the ecological conditions within the Site in the context of a potential future planning application for the redevelopment of the Site to provide new holiday lodges within the plantation woodland. Overall it is considered that subject to the implementation of the recommendations and enhancements set out within this report, an overall net gain in biodiversity at the Site may be achieved. Recommendations, in this context, are as follows: • Great crested newt presence/absence, population surveys • Reptile presence/absence surveys • Bat activity surveys • Retain as many mature trees as possible, with a focus on the most mature and best condition trees. • Clearance of any vegetation likely to support nesting bird to be done outside the breeding season (March – September inclusive) or to be supervised and guided by a suitably qualified and experienced ecologist. Any landscape planting should incorporate native species, including those species known to provide foraging opportunities for breeding birds and nectar sources for invertebrates. Enhancements in the form of bat boxes are also recommended. 15-3394 EXTENDED PHASE 1 SURVEY REPORT V2 RG 240316 Page 2 of 27 Table of Contents 1.

  • Inspector's Familiarisation Tour
    NEATH PORT TALBOT COUNTY BOROUGH COUNCIL LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN (2011-2026) EXAMINATION IN PUBLIC: Matter 4: Housing Provision – Allocated Sites Action Point 7 For the Ynysymond Road site (H1/25), Council to identify the extent and nature of biodiversity interest on the allocated site. Council’s Response This site consists of a cohesive network of fields supporting a variety of grassland habitats bounded by hedgerows with good connectivity to the surrounding countryside. The Council’s Biodiversity Unit has indicated that the site constitutes Local Biodiversity Action Plan (LBAP) habitat and meets the criteria for a ‘Site of Importance for Nature Conservation’ (SINC) – NPTSINC053 Pandy Farm1. In addition to the above, the watercourses on the site (particularly along the northern boundary) also constitute LBAP and SINC quality habitat. For clarity, a plan illustrating the extent of the SINC in relation to the housing allocation boundary is also appended. The features of the Pandy Farm SINC extend throughout all of the fields within the allocation, the watercourse SINCs are more limited, as shown on the plan. The area of land to the west of Derwen Road comprises improved grassland and the land to the east of Derwen Road consists of Rush Pasture with ditches, hedges and other boundary features. On this basis therefore, it is likely that mitigation measures will be required to ensure that there is no reduction in the overall value of the area. Where mitigation is not possible, compensation measures will normally be required to offset harm as far as practicable. A Biodiversity Records Centre Search has been undertaken2 which details the species recorded within the vicinity of the site.

D. Kravchenko, M. Fibiger, J. Mooser, A. Junnila & G. C. Müller Abstract In Israel, 20 species of tribe Apameini belonging to 10 genera have been found to date. Four species are endemic of the Levant (Sesamia ilonae, Luperina kravchenkoi, Gortyna gyulaii and Lenisa wiltshirei). Others are mostly Palaearctic, Mediterranean, Iranian and Irano-Turanian elements. Grassland species of the Apameini are mainly associated with the Temperate region and are univoltine with highest rate of occurrence in May, or in autumn. Most wetland and oases species are multivoltine and occur in oases and riverbeds over the country, though few of the species are extremely localized. The S. ilonae is presently known only from northern area of the Sea of Galilee, while A. deserticola is from oases of the Dead Sea area.

Abstract Additions, deletions and corrections are made to the Irish checklist of butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera). Elachista biatomella (Stainton, 1848) is added to the Irish list. The total number of confirmed Irish species of Lepidoptera now stands at 1480. Key words: Lepidoptera, additions, deletions, corrections, Irish list, Elachista biatomella Introduction Bond, Nash and O’Connor (2006) provided a checklist of the Irish Lepidoptera. Since its publication, many new discoveries have been made and are reported here. In addition, several deletions have been made. A concise and updated checklist is provided. The following abbreviations are used in the text: BM(NH) – The Natural History Museum, London; NMINH – National Museum of Ireland, Natural History, Dublin. The total number of confirmed Irish species now stands at 1480, an addition of 68 since Bond et al. (2006). Taxonomic arrangement As a result of recent systematic research, it has been necessary to replace the arrangement familiar to British and Irish Lepidopterists by the Fauna Europaea [FE] system used by Karsholt 60 Bulletin of the Irish Biogeographical Society No. 36 (2012) and Razowski, which is widely used in continental Europe.

  • Botolph's Bridge, Hythe Redoubt, Hythe Ranges West And
    Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR13 G (Botolph’s Bridge, Hythe Redoubt, Hythe Ranges West, and Nickolls Quarry) The tetrad TR13 G contains a number of major local hotspots, with Nickolls Quarry, the Botolph’s Bridge area and part of Hythe Ranges located within its boundaries. As a consequence the tetrad has the richest diversity of breeding birds in the local area, with 71 species having a status of at least possible in the latest BTO Atlas survey. It also had the highest total of species (125) in the winter Atlas survey. Sadly a major housing development is now in progress at the Nickolls Quarry site and much of the best habitat is now being disturbed or lost. Nickolls Quarry has been watched since the late 1940s, though early coverage was patchy, particularly in the 1960s and 1970s. As a working quarry the site has undergone significant changes during this time, expanding from two small pits to a much larger area of open water, some of which has since been backfilled. During 2001 to 2004 a series of shallow pools were created which proved particularly attractive to waders. Nickolls Quarry in 1952 Nickolls Quarry in 1998 Looking roughly northwards across the 'old pit' Looking south-west across the site towards the Hythe Roughs towards Dungeness Although a major housing development is underway on the site it still contains some interesting habitats. The lake is easily the largest area of open water in the local area and so remains one of the best areas for wildfowl, particularly during cold weather, for example in December 2010 when there were peak counts of 170 Wigeon, 107 Coot, 104 Pochard, 100 Teal, 53 Tufted Duck, 34 Gadwall, 18 Mute Swan, 12 Pintail, 10 Bewick’s Swan, 8 Shoveler, singles of Goldeneye and Goosander, and 300 White-fronted Geese flew over.
