Proposed Change of Status for Ballard Water Meadow
Stuart R • Oct 06, 2023
The Friends of Ballard Water Meadow recently proposed a change in the status of Ballard Water Meadow and War Copse, plus the nearby site of Barton Common, from SINCs ( Sites of Interest to Nature Conservation
) to LNRs ( Local Nature Reserves
).
Sadly, despite assurances that no decision would be made before a consultation process, the proposal was unexpectedly thrown out at the New Milton Town Council's Amenities Committee on September 4th 2023.
