Summary: 
We have recently begun felling some immature / young trees at Little Baddow Heath, Danbury, between Chelmsford and Maldon, with the view to make space to allow the woodland to develop. The work will continue over the winter period.

The process is known as ‘thinning’, where a proportion of the trees are felled.

“This work is essential since the woodland is overgrown and there is not a lot of light that reaches the woodland ground,” Adam Rochester, Reserves Manager at Essex Wildlife Trust, said. “Light is important because it promotes the growth of beautiful wildflowers, among them Yellow Archangel, and shrubs, including the Hawthorn, and attracts amazing butterflies, such as the White Admiral.”
