Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday
Worcestershire Wildlife Trust Nature reserve:
This impressive reserve, situated between Kidderminster and Bewdley, covers more than 150 acres. It is jointly managed by the Worcestershire Wildlife Trust (which owns the Devil's Spittleful), and Wyre Forest District Council (which owns the Rifle Range), both of which have been designated Sites of Special Scientific Interest.
The site is one of the few extensive areas of heathland remaining in Worcestershire. It is estimated that nine tenths of heathland has been lost to the county over the last two centuries. In 2007 the Trust acquired a number of fields adjacent to the reserve, which will be restored to create additional habitat.
