Country Park Trails - Lapwings Nesting

This meadow is an important breeding site for lapwings, whose numbers have declined drastically in recent years.

Lapwings are vulnerable to disturbance by walkers and dogs, and to protect the site Ely Wildspace/LCPRE volunteers in co-operation with Natural England and the farmer have restored the hedge around the meadow. Please stay this side of the fence and keep your dogs off the meadow.
