Surrey RSPB Reserve: Farnham Heath, nr Farnham, Surrey 

This reserve is a major restoration project, reawakening the heathland that was lost here – as in so many places – to commercial forestry. Already, many hectares of conifers have been cleared, with heather seeds germinating, and rare heathland wildlife such as woodlarks, tree pipits, nightjars and sand lizards are returning.

The reserve also has areas with wonderful displays of bluebells in spring, and they are opening up some wonderful views for the first time in decades, so do come and see this crucial conservation work in action. The reserve is next door to the Rural Life Centre, and RSPB visitors are welcome to use their car park, toilets and tea room.
