Wallingtonโ€™s rangers and Butterfly Conservation have made an incredible discovery...

During a monitoring survey at one of the estateโ€™s tenant farms, the team discovered only the second known population of the dark bordered beauty moth in England!

Farmer, Fiona Goodfellowโ€™s nature friendly farming practices, such as changes to how her livestock is grazed and restoring peatlands, has created the right conditions for this rare moth (and other species) to thrive here. The moth was last recorded in Wallingtonโ€™s estate over 70 years ago.

๐Ÿซ a morning scone from the Clocktower Cafรฉ (cheese, fruit or this monthโ€™s special blueberry and oat)?

๐Ÿฆ an afternoon ice cream from the parlour (choose from 11 flavours)?

Decisions, decisions ๐Ÿค”
