grounds of an existing hospital, including amenity grassland,
and various areas of planted trees, including avenues and lines
of limes and sycamores, mixed shelter-belts and more recent landscape
plantings. The work-scope involved a 0.5 day site visit, during
which rough maps were marked up, and then the preparation of a
neat copy of the resultant Phase 1 Habitat Survey Map, together
with a supporting 24 page report. In this instance the work involved
was, in effect, an Extended Phase 1 Habitat Survey and it also
included an investigation and consideration of the presence of
European Protected Species.

vegetation. The work-scope was confined to the preparation of
a neat copy of the resultant Phase 1 Habitat Survey Map and target
notes following a site visit;

Hills. It is comprised of pasture, silage and arable fields, shelter-belts,
scrub areas, moorland and rough grassland areas and coniferous
plantations. The site was visited during 2 day visits, during
