COLEY CHURCH WILDLIFE GROUP
Aiming to create a living graveyard
-
We launched a 5-year project in January 2024, the aim of which is to sustain and improve wildlife in our ancient graveyard east of our church.
-
This year we are focusing on clearing the area in the middle, at the back of the church allowing safe access for all to enjoy the nature.
-
We have been cataloguing species of trees, plants, birds and creatures.
-
We have placed bird boxes in the trees and created habitats for insects and wildlife. Blue tits are already nesting in one of the boxes.
-
We have cut back the rhododendrons which border the farm.
