Nunthorpe, Middlesbrough

The site is currently an arable desert on poorly draining soils adjacent to a heavily canalised stream. The site will be taken out of agricultural production transformed to a scrub grassland mosaic. The scrub will comprise mixed native species and will eventually mature and be managed to have different age categories with areas of open space within it.
