18th April 2010 - Rowlands Wood, East Sussex by Rob Thomas and Paul Harrison As Members of Butterfly Conservation (Sussex Branch), we were able to visit the new reserve recently purchased by the BC and to learn about the planned management of the site. A lot of work to be done over many years but it was lovely to already see some lovely sites, some of which are shown below.
