The 10 acres of land extend broadly to the east and north. The current owners have managed the land for 34 years to maximise biodiversity. The result is an oasis for wildlife, a mosaic of wildflower meadows, ponds, rough grassland and areas of native trees. The site is home to the endangered Hazel Dormouse. The owner allows Suffolk Wildlife Trust to monitor these animals as part of a long-term study.
