Two new interpretation boards have been erected at Fremington Local Nature Reserve giving information on the wildlife and history of the reserve. One board is situated near the village green and gives details of the traditional apple trees planted here and shows some of the wildflowers that occur in the meadow. The second board covers the wildlife value of the recently constructed scrape. It is situated on land owned by Barrett Homes, adjacent to the reserve.
The boards were funded by North Devon Council and were produced by the management group which has representatives from North Devon Council, Fremington Parish Council and North Devon Biosphere.
Councillor Dick Jones, says: "We are very lucky to have a designated Local Nature Reserve in Fremington and Lovell's Field is a really special place. The scrape is the latest initiative to improve the area for birds and other wildlife and these two interpretation boards will explain to local residents and visitors how important the nature reserve is."
The next event at Fremington LNR is a bat and moth walk at Lovell's Field on Thursday 24 August, more details to follow.
