Rhododendron Clearance

Image: © Nigel Mykura Taken: 28 Mar 2013

Large parts of the heathland in this area have been overcome by rhododendron and this area alongside the minor road from Stapehill to Broom Hill has been cleared although not completely. A few small rhododendron plants remain. Because rhododendrons kill all other plants, the cleared area looks like a wasteland.
