8.7 5 Year Work Programme

The prescriptions from each feature section has been listed in this table, some have been summarised. Please refer back to the feature sections for full text. Each management prescription has been given a priority based on the following key: Task complete 17/18 year to be carried out All recommendations are for delivery by SWT unless otherwise stated. In the wider areas of the common SERCO are employed to carry out the maintenance works which includes maintaining the amenity grassland areas and the removal of rubbish.

Table 2 5 Year Work Programme Prescription List Feature Prescription list Year

17/18 18/19 19/20 20/21 21/22 Management Plan

MP1 The work programme will be updated as required post work. MP2 The management plan should be reviewed in 2022.

Woodland & Scrub

W1: Targeted thinning and coppicing in north west (BW13) and northern half of BW1.

W2: Woodland work to avoid Bird Nesting Season. W3 Where Holly underscrub is abundant (i.e. BW10 and BW11), aim to reduce by 50% to achieve locally frequent only.

W4 In area BW4 some of the Holly along the path has already been thinned out and some more cutting back should be scheduled.

W5 Thinning in the southern half of BW1 should be avoided as this dense and dark habitat is ideal for bats.

W6 The main path in the woodland section (BW1) could do with some improvements such as board walks where it becomes too wet during winter.

W7 Widen the opening woodland canopy and undertake ride work around the existing local path that is closest to the eastern boundary edge by 3-5m.

W8 Every 3 years existing scrub/woodland interface should be cut back between 8-20m deep to continue managing this dense scrub woodland edge. In addition new areas of woodland edge (indicated on map) should be cut back and then left to grow back as dense scrub.

W9 Re-coppice the BW2 Hazel by The Cottage and liaise with SWT Dormouse expert with regards to Dormouse tube monitoring.

W10 Consider further opening up SNG11 by putting in a couple of bays approximately 20m long and 10m deep.

W11 Coppice willow scrub by wet depression by New Lane and the driveway into Beech Rose Cottage (TN8).

W12 Monitor mature and veteran trees.

W13 Retain Common Ivy on trees.

W14 Create habitat piles.

W15 Leave decaying wood in situ, where possible.

W16 Create deadwood refugia habitat.

W17 Consider erection of bird and bat boxes.

W18 Woodland management ties in with proposed SANG.

W19 Remove dense belt of Rhododendron (PHT3) along the driveway to The Cottage.

W20 Remove Rhododendron by SW1 and SW4 ponds.

W21 Remove Rhododendron by TN9.
