There are herb rich hay meadows filled with wildflowers testament to their sensitive management; a re-meandering project for the old watercourse to help slow the flow of water; leaky dams in the woodland watercourses and re-wetting of a rush pasture that will be enhanced with wildflowers and improved for wading birds. The walk will involve 2 - 3 miles over sloping farmland, some steep hills, rough tracks and terrain. Please bring suitable outdoor clothing and a packed lunch (if required). Tea and coffee will be available. Venue: High Ash Farm, Barrow Moor, Longnor, SK17 0QY.
