Climate exposure

This is about exposure to a nationwide pressure this habitat type carries — not a verdict on this site's own management.

Peatland

Peat habitats store centuries of carbon and depend on a stable, waterlogged water table. Warmer, drier summers dry out peat, making it far more vulnerable to wildfire and to carbon release — a pressure that can undo years of restoration work regardless of how well the site is otherwise managed.

Description

Description Wyre Forest is one of the largest ancient woodlands in England, being one of only 14 sites with more than 300 hectares of ancient semi-natural woodland. It is the most extensive area in England of lowland coppiced oak comprised of the pedunculate oak bracken bramble and oak birch wavy hair grass woodland types. The SSSI is the focus of an area of high value for biodiversity within the Midland Plateau Natural Area. The wood is next to a substatntial area of conifer plantation which although of lesser scientific interest, is important for the associated species interest and has a functional interdependence with the semi-natural woodland. The woodland flora contains elements of both southeast lowland and northwest upland woodlands, although predominantly acidic in character, it is modified by floristically rich base rich flushes. The site also contains a major scattered resource of unimproved neutral grassland of the common knapweed crested dog's tail type, a nationally uncommon and threatened habitat. This is contiguous with the woodland and contributes to a large habitat mosaic. The invertebrate assemblage is exceptionally rich and of national importance with one of the largest populations of pearl bordered fritillary Boloria euphrosyne in England. The woodland breeding bird assemblage is also of special interest with a typical western element to the avifauna. Wyre Forest is situated on the county boundary between north Worcestershire and south Shropshire. The forest extends for eight kilometres due west of the town of Bewdley and is a remanent of a once extensive tract of ancient woodland that covered much of Shropshire and north Worcestershire. It overlies a disected plateau containing shales and sandstones of the Upper Carboniferous Coal Measures that is heavily faulted giving rise to steeply disected valleys with areas of overlying glacial clay head deposits. The main drainage is formed by the Dowles Brook and its tributaries, flowing east into the River Severn, which forms a small gorge to the east of the forest. The soils are markedly acidic except for the alluvial deposits along the Dowles Brook and around the spring line seepages enriched by bands of Spirorbis limestone and sweet coals. Woodland and scrub The plateau woodland, comprised of the pedunculate oak bracken bramble and oak birch wavy hair grass woodland communities is the dominant vegetation type. Wyre Forest contains the greatest extent of the oak birch wavy hair grass woodland community to be found in the Midlands Plateau Natural Area and in Worcestershire. Shelf Held Coppice and Lord's Yard Coppice are typical examples of this vegetation, where coppicing ceased during the 1940's. The majority of the oak bracken bramble woodland consists of 120 year old high forest derived from old stores coppice with a limited shrub layer. Over mature oak coppice between 40 to 70 years old is also frequent, particulary on sloping ground. The topography of the steep valleys provides varying microclimates within the woodland with damp, humid north facing or warm, dry south facing slopes. Re-established managed coppice forms an increasing proportion of the area and will eventually extend to some 20 percent of the oak woodland. The dominant oak is sessile Quercus petraea and hybrid oak Q. x rosacea, which replace pedunculate oak Quercus robur in the Wyre. The trees include locally frequent silver birch Betula pendula, yew Taxus baccata, holly Ilex aquifolium and scattered rowan Sorbus aucuparia, wild service tree Sorbus domestica, crab apple Malus sylvestris and wild cherry Prunus avium. The ground flora is dominated by heather Calluna vulgaris, bilberry Vaccinium myrtillus and bracken Pteridium aquilinum with locally frequent wavy hair grass Deschampsia flexuosa, creeping soft grass Holcus mollis and bluebell Hyacinthoides non-scripta. Several locally scarce plants occur including narrow leaved helleborine Cephalanthera longifolia, wood cranesbill Geranium sylvaticum, wild columbine Aquilegia vulgaris and particularly in woodland near to Bewdley, lilly of the valley Convallaria majalis. In the New Parks area there is a descendant of the true service tree Sorbus domestica, now regarded as a native British tree. The valley and streamside woodland, particularly along Dowles, Mad and Baveney Brooks, is more base rich, with greater diversity of shrubs and trees typical of ash field maple dog's mercury woodland. The woodland understory is better developed in these areas with areas of hazel Corylus avellana coppice fringing the brooks. Other species includes ash Fraxinus excelsior, alder Alnus glutinosa, goat willow Salix caprea, guelder rose Viburnum opulus and small leaved lime Tilia cordata. The ground flora is also correspondingly richer with ramsons Allium ursinum, wild daffodil Narcissus pseudonarcissus and dog's mercury Mercurialis perennis along valley bottoms, with locally scarce species including tutsan Hypericum androsaemum, fragrant agrimony Agrimonia procera, saw wort Serratula tinctoria, mountain melic grass Melica nutans and soft leaved sedge Carex montana all common on the Shropshire side of the Dowles Brook valley. Valley bottoms and wet seepage flushes support areas of alder stinging nettle and alder ash creeping jenny woodland communities, often dominated by stands of pendulous sedge Carex pendula. On more base rich seepages, which often occur on sloping ground, downy birch purple moor grass woodland occurs, with eared willow Salix aurita and goat willow as frequent shrubs. The flora of these areas contrasts with the drier surrouding woodland with locally uncommon plants such as marsh pennywort Hydrocotyle vulgaris and common cotton grass Eriophorium angustifolium. Conifer areas occur more frequently on the Shropshire side of the forest in a mosaic with broadleaved trees. The rides and open areas are important for invertebrates and the stands provide nesting habitat for birds such as crossbill Loxia curvirostra, coal tits Periparus ater and goldcrest Regulus regulus. Raptors such as goshawk Accipiter gentilis and sparrowhawk A. nisus utilise the conifers as nesting sites. These species contribute to the overall breeding bird assemblage of the forest. Areas of scrub hawthorn Crataegus monogyna and blackthorn Prunus spinosa form a transition between the woodland and grassland habitats and are important for a range of birds and invertebrates and a food source for mammals such as dormice Muscardinus avellanarius. Woodland flushes Small base rich (soligenous) spring line flushes are a feature of the woodland and some meadows and provide contrasting diversity to the more dominant acidic conditions. They are scattered throughout the forest, typically occcurring on the sides of stream valleys and adjacent to streams. Grazing by deer helps to maintain the plant communities present. These flushes are rare and localised within the Natural Area. Frequent trees and shrubs include alder, downy birch Betula pubescens, eared willow, goat willow and alder buckthorn Frangula alnus. The ground flora of the seepage areas is sometimes dominated by dense dense stands of pendulous sedge but is often a varied mixture of plants such as water mint Mentha aquatica, lesser skullcap Scutellaria minor, bog pimpernel Lysmachia tenella, marsh valerian Valeriana dioica, bristle scirpus Isolepis setacea, sharp-flowered rush Juncus acutiflorus, pill sedge Carex pilulifera, star sedge C. echinata, wood horstail Equisetum sylvaticum and broad leaved cotton grass Eriophorum latifolium. Locally scarce species are also found on a few of the richest flushes, these include marsh fragrant orchid Gymnadenia densiflora, great burnet Sanguisorba officinalis, bogbean Menyanthes trifoliata, chaffweed Lysimachia minima, rough horsetail Equisetum hyemale and white sedge Carex curia. The invertebrates of flushes and mire vegetation communities have been little studied but a known associated fauna of beetles and flies includes three nationally scarce species: reed beetle Plateumaris affinis, a cranefly Limonia lucida and snail killing fly Psacadina verbekei. Woodland streams Dowles Brook is a clean, fast flowing stream flowing through the centre of the forest, with several major tributaries, including Baveney Brook and MAd Brook, of similar character. Numerous smaller streams flow entirely within the forest catchment protected from disturbance and pollution. The streams and brooks are rich in aquatic invertebrates including a small population of Atlantic stream crayfish Austropotamobius pallipes, a globally threatened and declining species. The brooks have extensive hard rock sections with pool and riffle areas and small silt banks which provide varied habitat diversity. Several freshwater fish are found in the streams including bullhead Cottus gobio, salmon Salmo salar, stone loach Barbatula barbatula, brown trout Salmo trutta fario and brook lamprey Lamoetra planeri. Due to the shade and moisture the streamsides are rich in bryophytes with over 80 species recorded. Grassland and orchards Species rich grasslands and orchards associated with smallholdings lie in and around the forest. This interface between the woodland and intensively managed farmland provides a zone that is rich in both flora and fauna due to favourable micro-climatic sheltered conditions, a range of vegetation structure and plant species and a summer nectar supply for invertebrates. The transition zone along the southern part of the forest is most extensive and best represents the now much reduced gradation into both traditional orchard and unimproved grassland. Old orchard trees contain hole nesting sites used by woodland birds, much deadwood, which is scarce in the woodland and sap runs for specialist invertebrates. The hawfinch Coccothraustes coccothraustes is particularly associated with cherry orchards, feeding on cherry stones. Other old orchards are of pear, damson and apples of many local varieties and contain some of the oldest trees of the forest. The diversity of the grassland swards under orchards varies with management history, but they are mostly semi-improved. The main vegetation of the unimproved grasslands is neutral (mesotrophic) grasssland characterised by common knapweed Centaurea nigra and crested dog's tail Cynosurus cristatus, a type which is nationally scarce and declining. Most grasslands conform to the heath grass Danthonia decumbens sub community, dominated by common bent Agrostis capillaris and red fescue Festuca rubra. Abundant herns in the sward vary between sites but include common bird's foot trefoil Lotus corniculatus, cowslip Primula veris, rough hawkbit Leontodon hispidus, yellow rattle Rhinanthus minor, common spotted orchid Dactylorhiza fuchsii, lousewort Pedicularis sylvatica, devil's bit scabious Succisa pratensis, burnet saxifrage Pimpinella saxifraga, betony Betonica officinalis, carnation sedge Carex panicea and spring sedge Carex caryophyllea, all occurring frequently. The grasslands contain a number of locally uncommon species, including lady's mantle Alchemilla ficaulis ssp. vestita, moonwort Botrychium lunaria, bloody cranesbill Geranium sanguineum, rest harrow Ononis spinosa, meadow saffron Colchicum autumnale, green winged orchid Anacamptis morio and adder's tongue Ophioglossum vulgatum. Plant species associated with more acidic free draining soils occur, particularly on the numerous anthills of the yellow meadow ant Lasius flavus, including heath bedstraw Galium saxatile, wild thyme Thymus praecox and heath speedwell Veronica officinalis. Light bracken and scrub cover on grasslands provide a woodland element to the flora with bluebell Hyacinthoides non-scripta, wood anemone Anemone nemorosa, bugle Ajuga reptans, wild daffodil Narcissus pseudonarcissus, common dog violet Viola riviniana, heath dog violet V. canina and early dog violet Viola reichenbachiana. These areas support a small population of the nationally vulnerable high brown fritillary butterfly Argynnis adippe. Birds The breeding bird assemblage includes characteristic western akwood birds such as wood warbler Phylloscopus sibilatrix, redstart Phoenicurus phoenicurus and pied flychatcher Ficedula hypoleuca. The forest is noted for large populations of birds such as tawny owl Strix aluco, woodcock Scolopax rusticola, tree pipet Anthus trivialis and all three woodpecker, green woodpecker, greater spotted woodpecker and lesser spotted woodpecker, great spotted Dendrocopos major, lesser spotted Dryobates minor and green Picus viridis. Uncommon breeding species include crossbill, hawfinch, raven Corvus corax, goshawk Accipiter gentilis and buzzard Buteo buteo. The larger streams have dipper Cinclus cinclus, kingfisher Alcedo atthis and grey wagtail Motacilla cinerea. In winter, large flocks of siskin Spinus spinus and redpoll Carduelis flammea frequent the woodland. Mammals A small population of fallow deer Dama dama maintain the characteristic open appearance of the woodland understorey where they have free access. The forest has one of the most diverse assemblages of mammals within the Midland Plateau Natural Area including several locally scarce species. These include a substantial populations of dormouse, whch is widelt dispersed over the forest, water shrew Neomys fodiens, yellow necked mouse Apodemus flavicollis and polecat Mustela putorius, with a long established stronghold in the area. Otter Lutra lutra frequent the River Severn and Dowles Brook. Strong breeding and hibernacula populations of common long eared Plecotus auritus, noctule Nyctalus noctula and pipistrelle bats Pipistrellus pipistrellus occur in the woodland, with Daubenton's Myotis daubentonii frequent along the river. Amphibians and reptiles The forest contains an outstanding assemblage of nationally widespread species of reptiles with adder Vipera berus, grass snake Natrix natrix, common lizard Lacerta agilis and slow worm Anguis fragilis widely dispersed over the area but particularly abundant to the west. Palmate newt Lissotriton helveticus is common with small populations of common frog Rana temporaria and common toad Bufo bufo present. Invertebrates The invertebrate fauna is exceptionally rich with a faunal assemblage covering many orders of insects, with habitat mosaic species particularly well represented. Many nationally scarce and declining species are present, often towards the edge of their geographical range in England. The site contains strong dispersed populations of several rare and or threatened butterflies. Species present include small pearl bordered fritillary Boloria selene which is Britain's most rapidly declining species of butterfly, silver washed fritillary Argynnis paphia, wood white Leptidea sinapis, white admiral Limenitis camilla and dingy skipper Erynnis tages. The nationally threatened pearl bordered fritillary Boloria euphrosyne, listed in the national Biodiversity Action Plan, occurs throughout the forest. Nearly half of England's macro moth species have been recorded, including the nationally scarce angle striped sallow Enargia paleacea, argent and sable Rheumaptera hastata, drab looper Minoa murinata, great oak beauty Hypomecis roboraria and satin lute string Tetheella fluctuosa, plus several uncommon species of clearwing moths, including white barred Synanthedon spheciformis, yellow legged Synanthedon vespiformis and red belted clearwing Synanthedon myopaeformis, which feed in old orchard apple trees. The nationally vulnerable beetle the noble chafer Gnorimus nobilis and the nationally endangered beetle Globicornis nigripes are both associated with old orchards around the forest edge. The forest is also the centre of distribution for the nationally rare terrestrial caddis fly Enoicyla pusilla which is abundant and widespread throughout the woodland. Strong populations of nationally scarce beetles include glow-worms Lampyris noctiluca, the leaf beetle Clytra quadripunctata and the sexton beetle Dendroxena quadrimaculata. Longhorn beetles are particularly abundant and notable species include the locally scarce Stenurella nigra, S. quadrifasciata, Stenocorus meridianus and Pachytodes cerambyciformis. The woodland supports one of the the densest populations of wood ants Formica rufa in England occurring near the northern edge of its range. Nests of wood ant are abundant throughout the forest and nationally scarce slave making ant F. sanguinea is present in two areas. Ant associated species of invertebrates include the scarce seven spot ladybird Coccinella magnifica, which is nationally scarce. Dragonflies occur along the major streams and the river with the goldringed dragonfly Cordulegaster boltonii, club tailed dragonfly Gomphus vulgatissimus and both the banded demoiselle Calopteryx splendens and the beautiful demoiselle C. virgo. Flies include the giant lacewing Osmylus fulvicephalus, hornet Vespa crabro, a southern species and sawflies associated with large woodland areas such as horntail Urocerus gigas, Pseudohemitaxonus sharpi and birch sawfly Cimbex femoratus. Fungi Both woodland and grassland are rich in fungi with an important assemblage of nearly 1400 species currently recorded. These include nationally scarce species such as Cortinarius violaceus, Hygrocybe calyptriformis and Strobilomyces strobilaceus. Old charcoal hearths, now replaced by brash burning sites, have a distinctive fungal flora with Glischroderma cinctum, Tephrocybe atrata and Faerberia carbonaria. Important lichen assemblages occur in Seckley Wood, including Thelotrema lepadinum, an old forest indicator species which is exceptionally scarce in Midland counties. Bryophytes The woodland contains a diverse bryophyte assemblage of special interest, with many species associated with ancient woodlands such as Polytrichum formosum, Mnium hornum, Dicranum majus and Hypnum cupressiforme and others characteristic of base rich seepages, including Trichocolea tomentella, Cirriphyllum piliferum and Apopellia endiviifolia. The nationally scarce moss Buxbaumia aphylla is found in Seckley Wood.
