Thanks to a kind donation from the Jo Holden Charitable Trust our Shepherds Hut is now open to visitors.

Telling the story of shepherding on the South Downs throughout the 19th and 20th Century, it offers a glimpse into the life of a hard working shepherd and connects the past with today; and how sheep are still a key part of our chalk grassland management.

The Shepherds Hut is usually open daily, but may close in certain weather conditions.

Thank you to for supporting this project.

Signs of autumn.

The fluffy white seed heads of traveller's-joy spotted climbing over hedgerow and scrub - the seeds are a great food source for our goldfinches.

Also known as 'old man's beard' or even 'Father Christmas' at this time of year.

You never know who is keeping a watchful eye on our Rangers when they are working in the landscape.

One of the reasons we don't use much big machinery when we are clearing meadows or scrub is to ensure our resident wildlife aren't harmed in their habitats.

It's time to start our autumn / winter scrub clearance programme.

South Downs Volunteers joined Rangers clearing scrub on Haven Brow, part of our work to maintain a mosaic of habitats in the landscape.

Thank you Volunteers! 💚
