The Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

Tuesday 18 December 2012

Over the last few months practical work has continued to improve the accessibility of Coleshill Common from Windmill Hill.  Large old conifers around an electrcity sub-station have been felled to open up the path.  As the sub-station is a bit of an eye-sore, local craftsman Mick Walters constructed a screen of woven hazel around it.

Next winter a hedge of native shrubs will be planted.  Once established, the scrubs will provide local wildlife with nectar and berries while screening the sub-station.
