    Durham Rare Plant Register 2011 Covering VC66 and the Teesdale part of VC65 JOHN L. DURKIN MSc. MIEEM BSBI Recorder for County Durham 25 May Avenue. 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.

Public Transport Information For information on getting to the coast using public transport, www.traveline.info please go to , or telephone 0871 200 22 33. Introduction Welcome to Durham’s Heritage Coastal Footpath, an 11 mile walking route following the England Coast Path National Trail. Discover and explore spectacular grasslands, superb coastal denes and uncover the rich heritage that has shaped this coastline into a unique and fascinating place to be. Why is it so special? Durham’s Coastline is unique. Nowhere else in Britain has such a wonderful display of Magnesian Limestone Coastal Grasslands supporting a vast array of wildflowers and insects. The Northern Brown Argus butterfly can be found amongst these grasslands in the summer months and flowers such as orchids, Bloody Cranesbill, Thrift, Birds’ Eye Primrose and Common Rock Rose are a characteristic sight on the grassy cliff tops. The sound of Skylarks and Lapwings in the summer are a musical treat not to be missed. The coastal denes created at the end of the last ice age support some of the most natural woodland in North East England and provide a valuable habitat for mammals such as deer, foxes, badgers and bats.

  • 1 the Vasculum
    THE VASCULUM APRIL, 1967 Vol. LII No. 1. Price 5/per annum, post free. Edited by T. C. DUNN, B.Sc. THE POPLARS, CHESTER-LE-STREET BY THE WAY Secretaries of Societies and other contributors to "The Vasculum" are invited to send their notes to the Editor before 15th June, 1967. OBITUARY NOTICE PROFESSOR JOHN WILLIAM HESLOP HARRISON, D.SC., F.R.S., F.R.S.E. On January 23rd 1967, Professor J. W. Heslop Harrison passed away at the age of 86, at his home in Birtley. After graduating at Armstrong College, University of Durham in 1903, he became a science master at Middlesbrough High School. During these school- teaching years, he carried on with his researches in his spare time. It was not long before his abilities in field studies, in both plants and insects, became widely known. It is not surprising, therefore, to find him returning to the University as a lecturer in zoology in 1919. His subsequent rise to fame was phenomenal. In 1926 he was appointed to a personal Readership in Genetics, the only one there has ever been at Newcastle. In 1927 he was appointed to the Chair of Botany, then in the very next year he gained his greatest distinction by becoming a Fellow of the Royal Society. During all this time and indeed until only a few years ago, research papers flowed from his pen at an unbelievable rate. His name must have appeared in every journal of biological subjects at one time or another. In addition, it must be remembered that he was one of the four founder editors of the "Vasculum" in 1915, one of the founder members of the Wallis Club in 1922, one of the founder members of the Northern Naturalists' Union in 1924 and the first Vice-President of the Naturalists' Trust of Northumberland and Durham.

  • Wildlife Guide Introduction
    Heritage Coast Sunderland Durham Hartlepool Coastal wildlife guide Introduction Our coastline is a nature explorer’s dream. With dramatic views along the coastline and out across the North Sea, it has unique qualities which come from its underlying geology, its natural vegetation and the influences of the sea. It is a wonderfully varied coastline of shallow bays and headlands with yellow limestone cliffs up to 30 metres high. The coastal slopes and grasslands are home to a fabulous array of wild flowers and insects, in contrast the wooded coastal denes are a mysterious landscape of tangled trees, roe deer and woodland birds. This guide shows a small selection of some the fascinating features and wildlife you may see on your visit to our coast; from Hendon in the north to Hartlepool Headland in the south, there is always something interesting to see, whatever the time of year. Scan the code to find out more about Durham Heritage Coast. Contents 4 Birds 9 Insects 13 Marine Mammals 16 Pebbles 20 Plants 25 Sand Dunes 29 Seashore The coast is a great place to see birds. In the autumn and spring lots of different types of passage migrant birds can be seen. The UK's birds can be split in to three categories of conservation importance - red, amber and green. Red is the highest conservation priority, with species needing urgent action. Amber is the next most critical group, followed by green. The colour is shown next to the image. Please keep your dogs on a lead to avoid disturbance to ground nesting birds in the summer and also over wintering birds.

Winlaton Mill, Blaydon, NE21 6SF [email protected] www.durhamnature.co.uk 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 2016, fourth edition of the “RPR”, dedicated to Keith Cunningham, who helped so much with the early databases and in many other ways. Improvements in this edition include- The new English Red List is incorporated into this edition. An additional 10% records, most of these more recent and more precise. Cover picture—Bird’s Eye Primrose at Widdybank Fell. Introduction Most 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 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. Species Covered Three groups of vascular plant species are included.
