Next steps in the high brown fritilary project

 

The three-year project has now ended, High brown fritilary - R. Goodisonalthough some more funding secured from the Vale of Glamorgan Council, the Countryside Council for Wales and Butterfly Conservation has enabled a fencing project which has allowed grazing to be introduced across an area of 16ha, reducing future management tasks. The next phases of the project are a feasibility study in March/April 2007 on the management of new sites within 10kms of the Alun Valley along with continuing control of the scrub.
