The programme is designed to help protect and conserve this internationally recognised Special Area of Conservation in the interest of current and future generations. Stroud Valleys Project carry out periodic surveying and reporting on the site, including surveys of birdlife and botanicals. In 2017 we worked on a survey focusing on footpath erosion, which can be viewed here. We followed this up in 2021 with botanical and skylark surveys. The 2021 report can be accessed here.
