Wildlife and Nature

The Parish Council has recently reached out to the Suffolk Biodiversity Information Service to ask for help identifying and confirming the variety and richness of the flora and fauna - specifically bats, dormice, GCN, service tree, wild orchid, bluebell, barn owl, but also any other rare, red or amber listed, important species.

The focal point is Elms Grove but including Round Wood and possibly Burstall Long Wood and covering at least a one kilometre radius of Elm Grove. 

The data research results are quite outstanding -

• Elms Grove (TM 10237 45268) Protected Species Results

• Elms Grove (TM 10237 45268) Schedule 9 Records

• Elms Grove (TM 10237 45268) County Wildlife Site Citations

• Elms Grove (TM 10237 45268) Study Area Map
