Since 2016, scything, raking and scrub removal has transformed an area of almost 3000 m2 solid reed to the rare NVC M13 (Black Bog-rush Blunt-flowered Rush) plant community, more than doubling the amount of this habitat in the Valley. #FenRestoration #AlkalineFens

View across a shallow valley. A boardwalk runs along the centre, and the upper half shows a cut area to the right and a dense area of uncut reed to the left. There are trees in the background and a sky with white clouds. A single stem of Marsh Helleborine orchid flowers that are thriving here thanks to the conservation work described in the post. The background is blurred.
