Summary
| Description |
English: Fraser Down Fraser Down was purchased by Surrey Wildlife Trust in 2008 after many years of negotiation with its owners. Although largely overrun with scrub, it has great potential as a link between the existing SWT reserve of Dawcombe, on the other side of the B2032 Pebblehill Road, and the former Betchworth Quarry, also managed by the SWT with the view to converting a landfilled quarry to downland. By restoring areas of the new reserve to open grassland, the aim is to provide stepping stones for chalkland specialists, such as the Silver Spotted Skipper butterfly, to move between sites, rather than being restricted to isolated pockets.
This photo was taken on a recorders evening, when the SWT invited members of the Surrey Botanical Society and other bodies to help build up a picture of the flora and fauna already on the site. It shows part of the upper section of the reserve, in an area less affected by scrub than the rest of the site. In the background is the existing SWT reserve of Dawcombe. |
