Franks Patch is a 3 acre parcel of common land that is being planted in order to improve the biodiversity of the area as well as providing a variety of habitats and food sources for wildlife.
Across the site the new trees are planted in tall, protective shelters. These help protect them from deer, that like to feed on the young leaves, which can damage or even kill the young trees.
