    KNIGH'ILOW HUNDRED KENILWORTH DIVISION. 741 The NORTH WARWICKSHIRE HUNT has been established mainly through the exertion of the Right Hon. Lord Leigh, and other noblemen and gentlemen in the vicinity of Leamington. It com­ prises a large pack of hounds, and is supported by subscriptions. The kennels have been erected about 1 mile from Leamington on the Kenilworth road. Another pack of hounds is kept at Atherstone, but the meets do not take place near to Leamington, in consequence of which railway conveniences are made during the season. FISHING and BOATING. Good pike fishing may be had in the River Learn and Avon, and boats may be hired at the Mill, and at the bridge at Emscote. The scenery along the banks of the rivers is very picturesque, and an hour's rowing will well repay the lover of nature. The WARNEFORD HOSPITAL. In 1825 an hospital was founded in Regent-street. Being confined 'in its situation, and too small for the number of patients, at the annual general meeting, in April, 1831, the propriety of erecting a new one having been considered, a sub­ scription was entered into for that purpose, which, in about twelve months, exceeded the sum of £2,500, including the handsome donation of £1,500 and a further sum of 1000 guineas by the Rev. Dr. Warneford, Rector of Burton-on-the-Hill, Gloucestershire, and his sister, Miss Warneford. Thebenevolencethusmanifested, together with a grant of land, on the Radford road, by the Earl of Aylesford, was followed by an unanimous resolution that a new building should be erected on the site named, and in honour of the Rev.

  • Revised Plan May 2017 White
    www.warwickshirewildlifetrust.org.uk ACTION for WILDLIFE Warwickshire, Coventry and Solihull Local Biodiversity Action Plan REVISED PLAN MAY 2017 WHITE-CLAWED CRAYFISH Austropotamobius pallipes 1. INTRODUCTION The white-clawed crayfish (also known as the Atlantic stream crayfish) is the only native species of freshwater crayfish in the UK. It lives in a variety of aquatic habitats that include streams, rivers, lakes, canals, reservoirs and water-filled quarries, preferring those without too much sediment and minimal pollution. Good refuges and cover, e.g. rocks, stones, aquatic vegetation, tree roots and bank cavities are important for its survival and lifecycle. © Tracey Doherty It is generally nocturnal, feeding on a range of vegetation, animal matter and detritus. Young crayfish are predated on by fish; larger crayfish are taken by birds, especially Grey Heron (Ardea cinerea), as well as mammals such as rat (Rattus norvegicus), mink (Neovison vison) and otter (Lutra lutra). The young can also fall prey to predatory insects such as dragonfly nymphs and diving beetle larvae. Maturation takes 3-4 years, with adults rarely exceeding 10cm in body length. For identification purposes, it is worth noting that at least six further species of crayfish have been introduced into Britain, with the American signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) now accounting for an increasingly high proportion of crayfish records in the sub-region. Other non-native species include the noble (Astacus astacus), red swamp (Procambarus clarkii), spiny-cheeked (Orconectes limosus), virile (Orconectes virilis), and Turkish narrow-clawed crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus), some of which are recorded within the Severn and Humber River Basins. The introduction and spread of these non-native species has impacted the survival of white clawed crayfish, which is out-competed for food and habitat by these more aggressive species.
