Mixed grazing on Llynclys Common
Llynclys Common is an area of common ground on limestone which is part of a nature reserve run by the Shropshire Wildlife Trust.

Livestock are grazed in the summer to help control the bracken and suppress any further tree growth. Fencing is used to control livestock and spring loaded gates are installed to avoid straying.
