About the reserve

Two west facing species-rich meadows with wet flushes. The trust has a policy for acquiring such meadows which are at risk and Farfields was bought for SWT by a neighbour. The meadows were formally a local wildlife site known as ‘The Gore’ and was part of complex of wildlife rich sites in the area. Species to look for include Southern Marsh-orchid, Carnation Sedge, Devil’s-bit Scabious, Bristle Club-rush, Cowslip and Oxeye Daisy.
