This reserve is a reclaimed domestic tip site, and as such the majority of trees and grassland are the result of the restoration process. Birds to be seen here are largely those expected in farmland areas such as linnet, wood, pigeon and chaffinch. Butterfly sightings include orange tip, small heath, wall and meadow brown
