Overview
Description
Our off-site mitigation site is located within NCA 61, under the jurisdiction of Shropshire Council. The site provides a strong mix of low, medium and high distinctiveness habitats to support Biodiversity Gain Plan requirements across Shropshire and the surrounding areas. This range enables flexibility for developers seeking to meet off-site Biodiversity Net Gain obligations, whether through area, hedgerow, or watercourse units. We can offer both whole and fractional units, structured to align with project specific requirements. Units are competitively priced and discounts are availably for larger requirements. Please get in touch to discuss availability, pricing, and how this site can support your development!
