– fell and clear one acre of chestnut and five large eucalyptus trees to encourage greater biodiversity.
– Install 55 dormice, owl and bat boxes, and adapt veteran trees where appropriate
– Coppice and pollard 400 meters of woodland edge and clear the roadside boundary
– Create and extend the existing ride network to encourage biodiversity
– Clear and restore 1000square meters of pond habitat to enhance aquatic and wetland species
