Loss Of A Mature Hedge At Wheeler’s Lane, Warminster

Warminster Town Councillor John Syme writes:

Wheelers Lane is a migratory route of toads from the north side to Smallbrook land. It is also an important area for bats. The loss of a mature hedge is detrimental to nesting birds some of which return each nesting season to the same nest. Help needed to monitor biodiversity in this sensitive area. I am not against development as long as it takes account of wildlife and habitats.
