Low Horcum farm.,,A giant Birdbox.

Built in 1811, Low Horcum Farm was last inhabited by humans in 1966 and fell into a state of near ruin. It underwent some renovation in 1986. However, over the next 20 years or so, weather and lack of further work meant that the building was in danger of falling down.

 

In 2008, ranger David Smith came up with an idea of saving this historic building and working with its structure to potentially attract wildlife, in particular, bats, swallows and barn owls.
