Total species seen at this site:
St. Bartholomew's Church originates from the 12th to 14th century and is grade 1 listed. It is surrounded by a sizeable churchyard, parts of which are being managed for wildlife. An area on the south side, facing Loughborough Road, is Church View Gardens, a lovely public open space which fuses traditional garden plants with native wildflowers and grasses.
The meadow grassland in the churchyard is being enhanced by the addition of Yellow Rattle and a few native wildflowers where seed has been sourced locally. Fifteen species of butterfly have been recorded, plus many birds and bees.
