Ham Common
Britain has some of the finest remaining examples of heathland in Europe, one such area is Ham Common Local Nature Reserve, Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)
This area was part of a continuous block of heathland in the 1760's and it covered approximately 100,000 acres of acidic sands, gravels and clays, broken only by the richer soils in the valleys of the Rivers Stour, Frome and Piddle.
Ham Common is an area of great beauty and interest. It provides a habitat for an immense variety of flowers and animals as well as being a place where visitors can enjoy the peace and tranquillity of this site. Birds such as the Dartford Warbler might be spotted flying in jerking movements low over the gorse bushes.
If you are very lucky you might be able to spot a lizard flicking its tail through the bushes.
PLEASE TREAT THIS AREA WITH EXTRA CARE.
THERE IS NO NEED TO LEAVE THE WELL USED PATHS
This cache is not wheelchair accessible.
Enjoy!
