Blooming Brilliant Biodiversity!
November 23, 2018
Congratulations to Maurice Burrell and the team at Middleton Quarry for their biodiversity action plan report.
Sean Cassidy, Regional Environmental Manager, commented: “A great result compared to last year. Biodiversity Index Score has gone from 45 in 2017 to 218 for 2018.
"This is due to better record keeping and an improved habitat rating (due to the presence of rare species). The Quarry managed to hit the species 100 target – with 101 species spotted!” The picture shows a flower called Mountain Avens which was spotted on site in May.
