Description
Environment Bank is England's leading provider of off-site Biodiversity Units. Greatworth Habitat Bank lies on the border of Oxfordshire and Northamptonshire, just six miles from Banbury. There our ecologists are transforming the existing arable fields (with limited ecological and agricultural value) into a vast mosaic of habitats to mirror the local landscape. Spanning more than 85 acres, our Greatworth Habitat Bank has been well placed to connect valuable habitats across the local area, several of which are named in Northamptonshire’s Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP). This Habitat Bank is being added to the biodiversity gain sites register and our Biodiversity Units are being reserved and purchased. Prices are inclusive of all fees and include legal and planning support. For our latest prices and availability, contact us directly via the Contact Seller button.
