Permanent pasture (scheduled ancient momument).
Current activity: Grazing for sheep
This diverse pasture, rich in Timothy, Meadow Fescue, Cocksfoot, Ryegrass, Chicory, Birdsfoot Trefoil, White Clover, Red Clover, and Lucerne, provides optimal nutrition for in-lamb ewes during daytime grazing. The mix offers a balance of high-energy grasses and deep-rooted herbs, supporting ewe health, digestion, and lamb development. With natural nitrogen fixation from clovers and lucerne, the pasture remains fertile and productive, ensuring a sustainable, protein-rich diet throughout gestation.
A perennial grass native to Europe and Asia, known for its tall stems, cylindrical flower heads, and soft green leaves. Grown for hay and forage due to its high nutritional value and palatability for livestock.
A hardy perennial grass with dense tufts and tall growth, valued for high yield and nutrition. Its broad leaves and coarse texture make it ideal for grazing and hay, even in dry or shaded conditions.
A low-growing perennial legume with creeping stems and trifoliate leaves. Its white flowers attract pollinators, and its nitrogen-fixing ability improves soil, making it ideal for pastures.
A hardy, fast-growing grass with dense growth and deep roots that improve soil. It withstands heavy foot traffic and thrives in cool climates, making it ideal for grazing and turf.
A nitrogen-fixing legume valued for its high protein content and digestibility as a fodder crop. Its deep taproots improve soil structure and drought resistance, while its rich nutrient profile supports improved animal health, fertility, and milk production.
A hardy, perennial grass valued for its high yield and digestibility. It thrives in cool climates, providing nutritious forage that supports healthy weight gain in livestock.
