  • SAC Status Reporting on Vertigo Moulinsiana in England: Monitoring at Selected Sites on the Hampshire / Wiltshire River Avon and Tributary Rivers Wylye and Bourne
    Improvement Programme for England’s Natura 2000 Sites (IPENS) – Planning for the Future IPENS061c SAC Status reporting on Vertigo moulinsiana in England: Monitoring at selected sites on the Hampshire / Wiltshire River Avon and tributary rivers Wylye and Bourne River Avon Special Area of Conservation (SAC) First published 09 June 2015 www.gov.uk/government/publications/improvement-programme-for- englands-natura-2000-sites-ipens This project is part of the IPENS programme (LIFE11NAT/UK/000384IPENS) which is financially supported by LIFE, a financial instrument of the European Community’. Foreword The Improvement Programme for England’s Natura 2000 sites (IPENS), supported by European Union LIFE+ funding, is a new strategic approach to managing England’s Natura 2000 sites. It is enabling Natural England, the Environment Agency, and other key partners to plan what, how, where and when they will target their efforts on Natura 2000 sites and areas surrounding them. As part of the IPENS programme, we are identifying gaps in our knowledge, and where possible, we are addressing these through a range of evidence projects. Results from these projects will feed into Theme Plans and Site Improvement Plans. This project forms one of these studies. A survey of Desmoulin’s whorled snail Vertigo moulinsiana was commissioned at nine sites on the River Avon, the River Wylye and the River Bourne, all of which fall within the River Avon Special Area of Conservation (SAC). Desmoulin’s whorled snail is a notified feature of the SAC. The study aimed to inform our understanding not only of the current distribution, but also the overall threats to the population on a site by site basis, leading to an overall catchment assessment, of which this report forms the current basis.

  • Chalk Streams and Grazing Mute Swans
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Bournemouth University Research Online Published as: Wood et al. (2014). Chalk streams and grazing mute swans. British Wildlife, 25 (3), 171- 176. Chalk streams and grazing mute swans Kevin A. Wood, Richard A. Stillman, Francis Daunt & Matthew T. O’Hare The chalk streams of southern and eastern England, with their crystal clear, gently flowing waters, are one of our most iconic ecosystems and are famous for game fishing. They are also among our most important wildlife habitats, with many designated as SSSIs and SACs, due to their abundant and diverse flora and fauna. These conservation designations require the UK to maintain or restore these rivers to favourable condition. Sadly, these watercourses and their plant community face a number of threats to their value as conservation areas and fisheries. Water abstraction from the rivers and their aquifers contributes to low flows, which reduces plant growth and encourages algal blooms which smother the plants, further reducing abundance. Low flows combine with soil run-off from agriculture to cause siltation of the gravel river bed, which makes growing conditions less suitable for aquatic plants. Algal blooms are exacerbated by nutrient pollution from agriculture and human settlements. These problems have contributed to the observed decline in river condition, known as chalk stream malaise. More recently, conservationists and anglers have become concerned that flocks of non-breeding Mute Swans Cygnus olor reduce plant abundance, which in turn degrades habitat for invertebrates, fish and other animals. For example, an angler survey found that 15% ranked grazing by swans in the top three factors contributing to chalk stream malaise, ranking it sixth overall (Frake & Hayes 2001).

  • River Wylye – Smallbrook Meadows Nature Reserve
    River Wylye – Smallbrook Meadows Nature Reserve An Advisory Visit by the Wild Trout Trust – July 2012 1 1. Introduction This report is the output of a Wild Trout Trust visit undertaken on the River Wylye at Smallbrook Meadows Nature Reserve, national grid reference (NGR) ST8844. The visit was requested by Neil Pullen, who is the Reserves Manager for Wiltshire Wildlife Trust (WWT). The visit was primarily focussed on options to enhance the river through the nature reserve for both wild trout Salmo trutta and water voles Arvicola amphibius. This section of the River Wylye (headwaters) is classified as being in Moderate Ecological Condition under the Water Framework Directive and is identified in the Environment Agency’s River Basin District plan as water body ID no. GB108043022520. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Neil Pullen and David Kelly from WWT and Roz Walker from the Sutton Veny Estate. Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. 2. Catchment and fishery Overview The Wylye is a tributary of the Hampshire Avon and is designated as a SSSI and SAC as part of the Avon system. It rises on the southern outskirts of the village of Maiden Bradley flowing North through the Deverill valley to Warminster where the river arches east across the southern boundary of the town, before heading south west through the Wylye valley between the A36 and the Wessex Main [railway] Line towards Salisbury.

  • Wiltshire Core Strategy
    22 Grange Lane Warminster Wiltshire BA12 9EY 9th December 2016 Dear Sir Based on my experience as a member of the Warminster Neighbourhood Planning Working Group I am very concerned by the proposed planning application reference 16/10502/OUT and would like to register my objections. Development Principles (Wiltshire Core Strategy CP1) The underlying principles of the Wiltshire Core Strategy seek to manage future development to ensure that communities have an appropriate balance of jobs, services and facilities and homes. The strategy recognises that previous growth hasn’t always been delivered in a proportionate manner whereby housing is delivered in settlements where there are insufficient employment opportunities leading to out-commuting. This is the reason why the West Urban Extension is a mix of housing, employment land, primary school, local amenities etc. This development is purely a housing development and does not meet the principles of the Core Strategy in providing balanced facilities that are needed for a self-contained community. The development does not provide additional employment area and so for new local employment relies on the employment area being developed to support the needs of the West Urban Extension. Wiltshire Council and Warminster Town Council have both recognised that Warminster is unusual in that more people commute out of town for work. The main towns for work near Warminster are Bath, Westbury, Trowbridge and Salisbury. With the exception of Salisbury all of these would involve households from this site crossing Warminster Town Centre. It therefore will contribute to Warminster’s current traffic problems relating to commuting through the town centre and Copheap in order to reach the new employment area on the West Urban Extension or go towards Bath, Frome, Trowbridge and Westbury.
