Blackhorse Road  Community Orchard and Nature Area 

Blackhorse Road Community Orchard and Nature area is a wonderful space that follows the Leap Valley up until Wallis Field and Blackhorse Road 

​

This area consists of a range of habitats as well as a community orchard which can join up with Leap Valley creating a wonderful wildlife corridor and a substantial area that needs to be managed. 

​

We are working with community members to create a group that will develop improve and maintain this wonderful area.  We will be supporting community members to enhance this space and further develop the way community users can interact with the space

A wonderful location with lots of potential
