Broadcroft Quarry Butterfly Reserve, Portland, scrub management

Broadcroft Quarry Portland


Continuing our ongoing battle with the clematis, Buddleia and bramble that threatens to envelop this reserve! There is also plenty of burning up to do if the conditions are right!

The Dorset branch of Butterfly Conservation and EuCAN will be collaborating with the Dorset Wildlife Trust on tasks on a variety of sites on Portland.
For further information contact nigelspring@yahoo.co.uk /tel: 07981.776767 Meet at 10am next to the recycling centre at Broadcroft.

Bring loppers, bowsaw and secateurs if you have them – and your refreshments and lunch.
Please let me know if you would like to attend and include your phone number so that I can call or text you if we need to change the plans because of the weather.
