Crane Park (A316) - Meadow management
With Biodiversity Action Team (West London)
At Crane Park, Hospital Bridge Road Entrance
Activity description
We will be revisiting some meadows in Crane Park to continue our control of dominant and unwanted plant species (brambles and burdock). In this session, we will be working at the A316 meadow, located next to the Hospital Road roundabout & Crane Park meadow, located north of Great Chertsey Rd. Some species can fast become dominant/invasive in open meadow spaces. They will often form dense stands in spring and summer, which shades out wildflower and grass species. Removal is often done in spring and early summer, before seed heads are able to form, to contain the growth/spread of the plant. Dependent on species, we will be utilising a mixture of mattocking, digging, and hand pulling removal techniques. The meadow site we will be working in this session is reasonably exposed so please bring a hat and water bottle and wear clothing that will keep you protected from the sun. We do recommend wearing long-sleeved shirts/trousers as we will be working around stinging nettles.
