Nailor Rough
We will be continuing to tackle the himalayan balsam at Nailor Rough.
Nailor Rough-Himalayan balsam removal
The site is a hidden oasis with a pond and some moorland plants, such as bilberry and associated grasses.
Currently, we haven't spotted any Himalayan balsam at the nearby Stoney Ridge and Northcliffe Park has much less after volunteers working hard on removal over the years, so this task will also help to prevent the spread further along the valley bottom.
If you would like a lift from Culture Fusion, please get in touch. We will be leaving at 10am.
