grasslands using seeds gathered from the local area. The most numerous bird

Details of the location of public access areas are given in the

not a public right of way and is only open at certain times of the
year, to avoid disturbance to wintering wild geese and nesting birds.

open to the public throughout the year. These areas are suitable
for dog walking, but always keep your dogs under control.
