About Old Down and Beggarwood Wildlife Group
Conservation group, looking after Old Down and Beggarwood sites. Beggarwood is the sister site to Old Down. It lies on the south side of the A30 and can be reached safely by crossing at the pedestrian lights. Beggarwood is a large site and biodiversity has improved due to the implementation of a three year mowing cycle.
Beggarwood is more sheltered from the prevailing wind than Old Down so we are hoping the butterflies will do well here. The community hall building is now open.
