About this Event
Join us for a site visit to one of our Wilder Northumberland Member Sites, Fen Letch, where there will be a tour of the site and a discussion about what has been done onsite.
Fen Letch is a piece of ex opencast land which was restored by 2015, amounting to 135 acres. The current owners bought it at the end of 2018 with the intention to let it provide a place for nature. The habitats include three large ponds, a ‘letch’ or slow seasonal stream, areas of tree planting and open grassland, scrub, thick hedgerow and a small piece of more established woodland. Mown grass paths give access to the site.
The visit will be followed by refreshments. Meeting at 10:00 at Fen Letch for the site visit and finishing at 12:30.
Please wear suitable clothing and footwear - wellies or sturdy boots are recommended. The site visit will include walking through rough uneven terrain.
