Bat Survey

Two people in outdoor gear and boots stand among tangled bushes and brambles, one holding a red notebook, both observing dense greenery and vines on a leafy embankment.

This week as part of getting to know our site better and to make sure our restoration project is supportive of wildlife as well as plants we’ve been busy surveying for bats in the grounds. Whether it was the glasshouse boiler room in the walled garden or old trees in the grounds, places bats might roost were assessed. During the survey we even found one brown long eared bat happily roosting. For more information on bat conservation follow the link.
