Walks in Barn Owl Heaven – LLP

Visit ‘Barn Owl Heaven’ – The Lennon Legacy Project (LLP) – a wild-life haven managed for Barn Owls on the edge of Dartmoor

Re-creating hedge banks, planting an orchard, building a wildlife tower and stone banks, plus the addition of two wildlife ponds has increased the biodiversity of this beautiful landscape which is blessed with great views.

Managing the land for Barn Owls has created wonderful habitat for a wealth of plants and flowers, insects, especially butterflies such as the Marbled White, birds such as Kingfishers and Swifts, and a host of animals such as Roe Deer, Weasels and Badgers.

Be inspired by the work of the Barn Owl Trust:

• Join us through the seasons for gentle strolls along mown grassy paths.
• A boardwalk and wooden bridges built by volunteers allow easy access through shady woodland along the riverside.
• Barn Owl Trust Conservation Officers will be on hand to share their knowledge and help spot and interpret the fascinating signs of wild-life.
• Described by visitors as ‘inspirational’, a visit to the Lennon Legacy Project is a chance to see practical wildlife conservation work at first hand.
• Refreshments: Tea, coffee, squash and biscuits – are provided at each event in our beautiful wood-lined ‘Norman Alderson’ Meeting Room.
• Devon cream teas and homemade cakes are available at some events.
• Seasonal Walks: Short gentle walks, but the terrain is steep and uneven in places. Suitable for able bodied folk of all ages. Sensible footwear is advised. Well behaved dogs on leads are welcome at most events.

In the event of bad weather the walk may be replaced with the Lennon Legacy Project talk and slideshow.

Please note that the terrain is steep and uneven in places. Please ensure you wear sturdy footwear.
