    Tips

    July 29, 2021

    These hills and valleys are part of the Castle Hill National Nature Reserve. The reserve contains ancient rich chalk grassland that provides vital habitat for wild flowers, including spider orchid, kidney vetch, salad burnet, round-headed rampion. This is a perfect place to see wonderful butterflies, such as Chalkhill Blue, Adonis Blue and Small Blue. Spring and summer are great times to see and hear farmland birds, like skylarks, yellowhammers and corn buntings.
