We commissioned an independent report in May 2021 on the wildlife and community value of Abbey Fields, you can download a copy here. Shown right is an excerpt from the foreword of the document. Click on the image to enlarge it.

We have twelve red listed bird species using the sites including the critically endangered Turtle dove. This is attracted to Croft Close because of the rich mosaic of habitats – especially the scrub.
