Wildwood Grove is a privately stewarded landscape in Somerset, comprising pasture, hedgerows, woodland edge, and water-influenced ground. The land has historically been managed for agriculture and is now being guided through a long-term transition towards nature recovery and ecological resilience.

The site’s physical character — including its soils, topography, hydrology, and boundary features — provides strong foundations for habitat creation and biodiversity uplift. These characteristics are being assessed and interpreted through ecological baseline surveys and hydrological understanding to ensure that restoration follows the land’s natural processes rather than imposing artificial outcomes.

Wildwood Grove is being managed as a coherent, functioning landscape. Hedgerows, grasslands, wet areas, and transitional habitats are treated as interconnected systems rather than isolated features. This approach supports species movement, improves ecological function, and strengthens long-term resilience.

All work on the land is guided by professional ecological input and is designed to be compatible with long-term stewardship, transparent monitoring, and policy-aligned biodiversity outcomes. The intention is not short-term intervention, but careful, evidence-led recovery that allows the land to improve in condition and complexity over time.

This landscape forms the foundation for Wildwood Grove’s wider work in nature recovery, Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG), and long-term ecological research and monitoring.
