Event description

9 March - ‘What a waste — what is the biodiversity value of urban brownfields?’, Richard Jones. Brownfields are often portrayed as being little more than bulldozed heaps of rubble, twisted metal and fly-tipped rubbish. But they are more floristically diverse than chalk downland, and home to more red-data-book and nationally scarce insects than ancient woodlands. In much of London and the Thames Gateway, the best areas are brownfields.
