  • Species Knowledge Review: Shrill Carder Bee Bombus Sylvarum in England and Wales
    Species Knowledge Review: Shrill carder bee Bombus sylvarum in England and Wales Editors: Sam Page, Richard Comont, Sinead Lynch, and Vicky Wilkins. Bombus sylvarum, Nashenden Down nature reserve, Rochester (Kent Wildlife Trust) (Photo credit: Dave Watson) Executive summary This report aims to pull together current knowledge of the Shrill carder bee Bombus sylvarum in the UK. It is a working document, with a view to this information being reviewed and added when needed (current version updated Oct 2019). Special thanks to the group of experts who have reviewed and commented on earlier versions of this report. Much of the current knowledge on Bombus sylvarum builds on extensive work carried out by the Bumblebee Working Group and Hymettus in the 1990s and early 2000s. Since then, there have been a few key studies such as genetic research by Ellis et al (2006), Stuart Connop’s PhD thesis (2007), and a series of CCW surveys and reports carried out across the Welsh populations between 2000 and 2013. Distribution and abundance Records indicate that the Shrill carder bee Bombus sylvarum was historically widespread across southern England and Welsh lowland and coastal regions, with more localised records in central and northern England. The second half of the 20th Century saw a major range retraction for the species, with a mixed picture post-2000. Metapopulations of B. sylvarum are now limited to five key areas across the UK: In England these are the Thames Estuary and Somerset; in South Wales these are the Gwent Levels, Kenfig–Port Talbot, and south Pembrokeshire. The Thames Estuary and Gwent Levels populations appear to be the largest and most abundant, whereas the Somerset population exists at a very low population density, the Kenfig population is small and restricted.

  • England Coast Path Report 2 Sizewell to Dunwich
    www.gov.uk/englandcoastpath England Coast Path Stretch: Aldeburgh to Hopton-on-Sea Report AHS 2: Sizewell to Dunwich Part 2.1: Introduction Start Point: Sizewell beach car park (grid reference: TM 4757 6300) End Point: Dingle Marshes south, Dunwich (grid reference: TM 4735 7074) Relevant Maps: AHS 2a to AHS 2e 2.1.1 This is one of a series of linked but legally separate reports published by Natural England under section 51 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, which make proposals to the Secretary of State for improved public access along and to this stretch of coast between Aldeburgh to Hopton-on-Sea. 2.1.2 This report covers length AHS 2 of the stretch, which is the coast between Sizewell and Dunwich. It makes free-standing statutory proposals for this part of the stretch, and seeks approval for them by the Secretary of State in their own right under section 52 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. 2.1.3 The report explains how we propose to implement the England Coast Path (“the trail”) on this part of the stretch, and details the likely consequences in terms of the wider ‘Coastal Margin’ that will be created if our proposals are approved by the Secretary of State. Our report also sets out: any proposals we think are necessary for restricting or excluding coastal access rights to address particular issues, in line with the powers in the legislation; and any proposed powers for the trail to be capable of being relocated on particular sections (“roll- back”), if this proves necessary in the future because of coastal change.

  • Access Statement Minsmere Nature Reserve Introduction Minsmere Is the Beating Heart of Suffolk’S Wild Coast
    Access Statement Minsmere nature reserve Introduction Minsmere is the beating heart of Suffolk’s wild coast. Acres of reedbed, wetland, beach and heathland combine as a refuge for iconic wildlife. It’s the RSPB’s ‘ark’ on the Suffolk coast: where rare species have recovered, where common species thrive, and where people and wildlife come face-to-face in a wild environment. The reserve is located in the beautiful landscape of the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with leisurely walks. The site offers fantastic birdwatching, with hides which bring you close to avocets, waders and terns in spring and summer and hundreds of ducks in winter on the coastal lagoons known as the Scrape. The reedbeds at Island Mere host bittern and marsh harrier and elusive wildlife such as otters. It is also a haven for other wildlife, including a wealth of butterfly and dragonflies and spectacular red deer which gather to rut on the site in the autumn. The visitor routes are largely on level ground or with shallow slopes. The visitor centre, which includes reception, shop, café and toilet facilities are all accessible on one level. Access from the Visitor Centre to the nature trails is via a gentle ramp. Some nature trails and hides are more accessible than others. Further details about the reserve and what you can see and do can be found on our website at http://www.rspb.org.uk/reserves/guide/m/minsmere/index.aspx RSPB 0816 1 Pre Arrival For a map and directions of how to reach us please see the ‘How to get here’ section on our website, which has a link for sat navs.

GENERAL INFORMATION 1 Natural heritage 1.1 Environment The Environment Agency through their contractor continues to monitor the internal flood defence bank and the sluice structure against tolerances agreed in the designs. Divers replaced the seals in the sluice in February 2013 after leakage rates became unacceptable. This work appears to have resolved the issue. The Environment Agency have commenced a project in October 2012 to refurbish the main tidal sluice and raise embankments along the New Cut River which will reduce flooding into the southern reedbed areas and fen meadows. The Project experienced several delays including substantial rainfall over the spring and summer leading to the flooding of the Sluice Trail which was the main works access. Completed works from Phase I included: The establishment of the main compound near the Minsmere work centre and a satellite compound near the Tidal Sluice.
