The Easter 2010 school holidays have seen a rise in teenagers, congregating in the Local Nature Reserve at night. The local Police are aware of the situation and several arrests have been made on Public Order Offences.

Can we reiterate to parents that the Nature Reserve is a Nature Reserve. Not a place where large numbers of youths can congregate and drink alcohol.

Local Nature Reserve

The Local Nature Reserve is situated off Curtis Hayward Drive, with access points and a car park, another gate is situated off Hillcot Drive.

It is a haven for wildlife including squirrels, foxes and badgers.

It is managed by Gloucester City Council.

Once you enter the reserve you will soon relax and find peace and solitude, even though you are in the centre of a large developed area.

QACA regularly clear up the Nature Reserve, and have held BBQ’s in conjunction with the Parish Council during it’s Easter Egg Hunt.

If anybody , or a group wishes a guided tour around the area and learn the History of  it, please contact us.

QACA are currently in negotiation with the City Council and the Countryside unit to Formulate a management plan, which will include members of QACA working alongside the countryside unit to help maintain the area.
