Biodiversity Education Day

The year 6 students from The Croft Preparatory School ventured to the Estate again this week to take part in nature studies on the biodiversity land at Alscot. The children took part in orienteering, identifying native tree species, an invertebrates study and a wildlife and plant ID walk. We hope the activity day inspired the children to become a positive voice for nature in future, and based on their enthusiasm, even on a damp day, we have no doubt that they will.

David's Retirement Party

David's Retirement Party

Following David Hall’s retirement last year, we were finally able to gather together to pay tribute to David’s long service.

The sun shone and the setting was perfect for friends and family to wish David the happiest of retirements.

After more than 60 years working on Estate land, man and boy, David took retirement in 2020.

On Tuesday 7th September, the Holman-West family invited David to their home, Alscot Park, along with colleagues, friends and family to enjoy afternoon tea and celebrate the retirement he truly deserves.

Balancing Business and Biodiversity

Balancing Business and Biodiversity

Improving biodiversity alongside supporting business can be a complex and tricky business. Planning and development are essential to the strength of Warwickshire's economy. Safeguarding and improving biodiversity throughout the county is essential to all our futures. Marrying up these two great objectives, so that both are achieved, can be a complicated business, but it is a high priority. Alscot is no stranger to balancing business, adapting with the times to generate income streams and encourage commerce, whilst protecting the surrounding countryside, for future generations.

Retirement beckons after 61 years continuous employment man and boy!

Retirement beckons after 61 years continuous employment man and boy!

Stepping into his father’s footsteps, working on land in Clifford Chambers, where he lived as a boy, David Hall started his career in farming at the age of 15.

Working under the direction of local landowner, Major Taylor, David had originally started work 4 years earlier whilst at school, mowing the lawns at Clifford Manor for pocket money, before he ventured into full time employment.

Biodiversity Education

With biodiversity being high on the agenda in so many schools now, the purpose of this project is to engage with children and offer opportunities to provide them with an understanding, in an interactive way, of the bigger picture in which todays challenges sit. Our aim is to help deliver, through practical demonstration, the complex issue of biodiversity to the next generation, to influence and promote a positive effect, and ultimately improve the health of the planet, that impacts all our lives.

Planting The Roundel

After two years in the planning, we are very excited to have some tangible activity to show you on our Biodiversity Project site!

Following a careful plan, week commencing 19th Oct 2020, we (Kate, Paul, Harriett and Elliott) planted in excess of 11,000 wildflower bulbs and plugs in a wooded area known as The Roundel and each of the species was selected carefully by top ecologists. The objective is to increase the biodiversity value of the wood by recreating a woodland ground flora, improving the age structure, and increasing the deadwood resource.

Trees and Planting Portfolio

Year after year, we continue to plant new trees, our attempt to enhance the countryside and positively encourage biodiversity; the web of life.

Thankfully, we are now all more aware, than ever before, of the devastating impact of plastic on our oceans and the need for more trees to filter air pollution and help eliminate carbon & other greenhouse gases, in order to reduce the ozone levels that have a damaging effect on the climate.
