⭐Back in August 2023 we put up special reptile fencing in some areas to protect our large population of slow worms while work was carried out to improve the footpaths and build the Visitor Centre. That fence was taken down earlier this year. Today Rachael from our team managed to get a lovely video of one of themem enjoying the sun.

⭐The common slow worm (Anguis fragilis) is a non-venomous species of legless lizard native to the UK.
