Kate,<br />

Thank you. Please find attached a plan of the area leased to GGOW. You will see the northern<br />

part of the field which is outwith the leased area and which we have used for the reptile<br />

mitigation. GGOW planted the edge along the boundary on our side of the boundary fence. As<br />

you can see from the plan, the boundary is to the west of the pylon and overhead line, not the<br />

east. But it could be that the fence is in the wrong place maybe? The hedge has died anyway and<br />

given it is on our retained land we do not intend to replant it. We propose to remove the tubes.<br />

In respect of your proposed species mix, I would make the following suggestions.<br />

In general terms regarding the woodland and woodland edge plantings, I think that the soil type<br />

here is one of the lightest on the Estate, and as the land is going to be re-profiled, this will<br />

increase the droughtiness of the soils and I think the species mixture should reflect this. The<br />

woodland edge planting with open grassland is 40% open grassland, but it is shown behind a post<br />

and wire fence so how will access be gained to manage it? It will only remain as open grassland<br />

if it is managed or if the rabbits decide to keep it closely trimmed. I think this area might actually<br />

become an area of scrub which is a good habitat anyway.<br />
