Existing woodland areas enhanced through planting of new diverse native species Elm, Birch, Field Maple, Beech and Oak to enhance species composition. Debris and rubble removed from woodland floor and existing woodland area sown with native wildflower seed mix. Dead trees conserved as short ‘stags’ as habitat for woodpeckers and saproxylic invertebrates.

Quarry scarp kept clear of scrub and woodland to allow geological strata to remain visible. Herbs colonising the scarp are conserved to provide seasonal floral interest.\Boardwalks provide elevated access around wild woodland and meadow areas. Boardwalks are accessed easily from dwellings. Canopies of some trees lifted to facilitate access.

Open native calcareous meadow atop scarp enhanced with wildflowers for limestone soil; Agrimony, Knapweed, Sainfoin, Scabious providing pollen resource for invertebrates. Encroaching scrub managed. Natural succession of native scrub at edges of meadow.

Ornamental, structural and formal shrub and perennial planting to enhance immediate setting of each dwelling. A diverse blend of native, near-native and non-native species would be planted to extend the flowering season and provide seasonal interest and visual interest close to dwelling.
