Morning walk
Citizen Zoo’s “vision for Tolworth Court Farm is an urban nature reserve that, where possible, embraces natural processes to drive a complex, dynamic landscape full of wildlife, while providing engagement opportunities for local people. Despite being home to ancient hedgerows, a locally significant population of Brown Hairstreak butterflies and a small fragment of wetland, the series of 7 meadows spanning 43 hectares is far from reaching its ecological potential. This pioneering project between Citizen Zoo, The Community Brain and Kingston Council has the shared vision to establish a dynamic, mixed-mosaic nature reserve that nurtures a more diverse and abundant wildlife population. Through innovative rewilding measures inspired by rural projects such as mixed grazing regimes, we aim to restore and enhance the site’s ecological balance while honouring its rich cultural heritage.”Meet: by the locked green gates of Tolworth Court Farm’s Moated Manor nature reserve in the Old Kingston Road, Worcester Park (KT4 7QJ).
