Shelley Wildlife Garden

Our Shelley Wildlife Garden is the first thing you will see when entering the Reserve from the car park.

This has been planted with native flowers, bulbs, climbers, pollinators. Since this was first opened we have enjoyed the many changing colours and also how some of the plants have self seeded to other areas. Adjacent to the path is a stretch of wildflower turf which cascades down to the more formal planting areas.

Below are some photos taken over the last couple of years in the garden. As the garden continues to develop we will keep the photos coming.

We are always looking for volunteers to help us keep the garden looking wonderful, no experience is needed just enthusiasm and enjoy working alongside a great team of like minded people.

Discovery Hub

The formal opening was performed by one of our young visitors Samantha Verrall on Monday 25th October 2021. There has been a lot of wonderful comments from our visitors on the amazing views across the millpond from the Hub and Hide. Even in the rain we had on our opening day did not dampen the view, it just changed the colours and the activity of the wildlife there.

Here are a few pictures from our opening and our mask making activity.
