Name of site: Tim’s Wood
Aims: a Provisional Working Plan for Tim’s Wood:
1. Create an inclusive age profile - provision for all dependent upon availability
2. Sympathetic planting to encourage biodiversity and offset pollution from the nearby M5 – consider growing hazel for whittling.
3. Preserve indigenous mixed broadleaf up to and no more than 10% of the woods to prevent habitats for grey squirrels occurring.
4. Retain dead wood where possible to provide a habitat for fungi and invertebrates.
5. Focus on a mosaic of woodland structures to increase biodiversity and rotate site when possible, to prevent over -use, erosion or “dead” spots.
6. Identify and protect habitats for certain priority species such as red squirrels, birds, bats, butterflies and bees
