Huckle for Huckle Ecology Ltd Huckle Ecology Ltd Maplefield, The Street, Redgrave, Suffolk, IP22 1RW www.huckleecology.com Registered in England. Company No. 10017144. White House Barn, Lenwade, Norfolk Protected Species Scoping Survey 1 Executive Summary 1.1 Huckle Ecology was commissioned in July 2016 to provide an Ecological Report in relation to a proposed conversion of a barn into three no. holiday units. The report had been requested by the Planning Department of Breckland Council for scoping for “…bats, barn owls and breeding birds of all buildings within the site area”. 1.2 The proposed development is for the conversion of a barn and associated lean-to buildings called White House Barn. The barns are surrounded by mown grass and farm yards/hard standing that are of negligible ecological value. 1.3 A desk study was undertaken in July 2016 to identify features of ecological value that could potentially be affected by the proposed development. Records of statutory and non-statutory designated sites within 2km were requested from Norfolk Biodiversity Information Service (NBIS), along with records of protected species or species of conservation concern (SoCC). 1.4 The desk study and data search have confirmed that while the Site does not benefit from any statutory or non-statutory nature conservation designation itself, it is located approximately 50m from the River Wensum which is designated as a SSSI and a SAC. Within 2km of the Site, there is one further SSSI, Whitwell Common SSSI, and a total of 13 County Wildlife Sites. 1.5 Although the barns are located within 50m of the River Wensum SSSI, the proposed development would not result in any increase in the developed footprint in the area and the barns are located sufficiently distant from the River Wensum to ensure that there would be no significant increase in disturbance or increased lighting above existing levels. Therefore, it is not considered likely that the proposed conversion would result in any adverse effect on the SSSI or its designating features. The. 1.6 The NBIS provided records of numerous protected species from within 2km of the site, reflecting the nature conservation value of the designated sites within the River Wensum valley, including the numerous gravel pits and meadows located on either side of the river itself. 1.7 The NBIS returned records of nine species of bats, which represents a relatively rich species assemblage. These records include a large number of records collected as part of the Norfolk Bat Project, with most records dating from 2013-2015, suggesting that the records reflect the intensity of recording at this time as well as the abundance of good quality roosting and foraging habitat within the River Wensum valley. 1.8 A Preliminary Bat Roost Assessment was undertaken, comprising a detailed external and internal inspection of the barns for field signs of bats, for indications that bats might use the barn and for potential access points into the building. 1.9 The building inspection revealed bat droppings and butterfly wings in the main barn and one of the two small brick outbuildings on the west elevation of the building. The bat droppings in the main barn were relatively scattered and

    Water Management Alliance (Eastern) Norfolk Rivers Drainage Board BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN April 2018 NORFOLK RIVERS IDB – BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN Front cover images (L-R) ; Himalayan Basalm; Barn Owl; White Clawed Crayfish; Otter; River Nar; IDB Digger 2 FOREWORD This Biodiversity Action Plan (Second Edition) has been prepared by the Norfolk Rivers Internal Drainage Board, in accordance with the commitment to the Implementation Plan of the DEFRA Internal Drainage Board Review, requiring IDBs to produce their own Biodiversity Action Plans by April 2010. As such, the original version was published in January 2010. This revised version aims to continue to align the Norfolk Rivers IDB with biodiversity policy and more specifically, the Biodiversity document for England, “Biodiversity 2020: A strategy for Englands’ Wildlife and Ecosystem Services” and build on the Government’s 25 Year Environmental Plan; A Green Future. In doing so, the document strives to demonstrate the Board’s commitment to fulfilling its duty as a public body under the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006, to conserve biodiversity. Many of the Board’s activities have benefits and opportunities for biodiversity, not least its water level management and watercourse maintenance work. It is hoped that this Biodiversity Action Plan will help the Board to maximise the biodiversity benefits from its activities and demonstrate its contribution to the targets as part of the Biodiversity 2020 strategy and achieve wider environmental improvement within its catchments. The Board has adopted the Biodiversity Action Plan as one of its policies and subject to available resources is committed to its implementation. It will review the plan periodically and update it as appropriate.

About Us NWT’s vision is to seek a sustainable environment for people and wildlife where the future of wildlife is protected and enhanced through sympathetic management and people are connected with and inspired by Norfolk’s wildlife and wild spaces. Two of the key strategies in order for us to achieve our vision are to manage and enhance our nature reserves for wildlife and people and to help wildlife adapt to climate change by promoting a “Living Landscape” for Norfolk through the establishment of an ecological network, with targeted action plans. A visit to our website at www.norfolkwildlifetrust.org.uk will provide more information on our impressive portfolio of nature reserves and the work of the Trust in general. 2. NWT’s Woods & Heaths Team and Nature Reserves. NWT’s Woods and Heaths Team manage 18 sites within the South, Central and North Norfolk Area. Most of the woodland nature reserves are ancient woodland, and include some of the best examples of bluebell woods in the county. The other sites include some of the best examples of heath, mire and fen, and are home to important species such as Norfolk flapwort, nightjar, woodlark, silver studded blue butterfly, and marsh gentian. Most are designated SSSIs; Foxley Wood is also an NNR. Buxton Heath and Holt Lowes are part of the North Norfolk Valley Fen SAC. Foxley, Thursford and Bretts Wood form a part of NWT’s North Norfolk Living Landscape initiative. There is a variety of woodland management techniques carried out by the team from traditional coppicing to more contemporary forestry practice.
