SUMMARY:EP6 – Mawson's Garden
DESCRIPTION:Owing to overwhelming demand for walk EP5\, Brian Smith has very generously offered to add a further opportunity to visit the garden at Mawson’s on Friday 13th September. \nMawson’s was once part of the grounds of the Grey Walls estate (now Ridgeway Park) near Jenny Brown’s Point\, Silverdale\, believed to be designed by the renowned landscape architect\, Thomas Mawson\, some time in the 1920s\, for the Sharp family.  The formal gardens that once graced the slopes around the original house nearly one hundred years ago fell into neglect over much of the late twentieth century and then were very nearly lost forever when the estate was divided up for sale and redevelopment a number of years ago. \nFortunately\, local expert on Thomas Mawson\, Brian Smith\, was able to acquire the Summer House and garden and\, together with a small but enthusiastic group of volunteers\, has been patiently and laboriously working to reveal and restore many of its former wonders. \nBrian very generously allowed Landscape Trust members to visit the gardens at Mawson’s in June last year. This event will provide a very privileged viewing of the development of a labour of love\, and offers a unique opportunity to glimpse a very special corner of the Extraordinary Place that is our AONB. \nThe walk round the gardens will take about an hour and a half. Walking is mostly on level terrain\, although with some steps and sloping ground. \nAt the request of the owner\, dogs are not permitted on this walk. \nPlease note that there is extremely limited parking available at the venue itself and on nearby roads.  Please let us know when booking if you will require assistance with transport to the event\, or can offer places to others. \nPLEASE NOTE: Booking for this event is by email only. Preferential booking is being offered in the first instance to those people on the waiting list for EP5\, or wishing to transfer from EP5 to this walk.  Please note also that it is not possible to book places for the same participant on both this walk and EP5. \n

SUMMARY:EP2 -  Grubbins Wood
DESCRIPTION:A walk by Jamie Normington of Cumbria Wildlife Trust \nHidden corners and little known gems abound within the Arnside and Silverdale AONB\, and help to make it such an Extraordinary Place to live and to visit. \nOne of the area’s most easily overlooked gems is Grubbins Wood Nature Reserve\, a lovely ancient woodland and meadow reserve owned by the Cumbria Wildlife Trust. The reserve is tucked away at the side of the Kent estuary at New Barns Bay\, where it is undoubtedly passed by many every day but probably only ever visited by a few. The reserve is home to a variety of plants and insects that are rare in Cumbria\, such as small-leaved lime\, Lancastrian whitebeam and red wood ants. \nCumbria Wildlife Trust’s Education and Community Officer\, Jamie Normington\, will lead this walk through Grubbins Wood\, Sands Field and Pickles Meadow. \nIf you will be travelling to this event by car and are able to offer a lift to someone without transport\, or alternatively would appreciate a lift to the event\, please let us know when booking. \nPLEASE NOTE: Booking for this event is by email only.

SUMMARY:EP1 – Gait Barrows and Hawes Water
DESCRIPTION:A walk by Glen Swainson of Natural England. \nOne of the major features that makes the Arnside and Silverdale AONB such an Extraordinary Place is the limestone pavement that makes up so much it.  Nowhere is this as spectacularly displayed as at the Gait Barrows National Nature Reserve in the heart of the AONB\, where one of the most important limestone pavement areas in Britain is under the care of Natural England. \nThe manager of the reserve\, Glen Swainson\, will lead this walk around Gait Barrows and the neighbouring Hawes Water\, explaining the reserve’s history\, its special qualities and features\, Natural England’s current policies and plans for the conservation of nationally rare plant and insect species\, as well as showing off some of its hidden corners. \nThe walk will start at 2 pm and last about 2 hours. The walk will include some rough terrain which may well be slippery\, especially if wet. Please ensure that you bring water-proofs and wear stout footwear. \nDogs are not permitted on this walk\, owing to Natural England policy at the reserve. \nThere is only limited parking for this event. If you will be travelling to this event by car and are able to offer a lift to someone without transport\, or alternatively would appreciate a lift to the event\, please let us know when booking. \nPLEASE NOTE: Booking for this event is by email only.

SUMMARY:EP3 – Arnside Knott
DESCRIPTION:A walk led by Craig McCoy of the National Trust. \nThere is surely no place more iconic of the Arnside and Silverdale AONB than the top of Arnside Knott\, with its wind-sculpted yews and panoramic views of the AONB\, Morecambe Bay\, Bowland hills\, Yorkshire Dales and Lake District fells.  Much of the Knott is under the ownership and management of the National Trust\, and we are delighted that their Area Ranger for Morecambe Bay and Arnside and Silverdale\, Craig McCoy\, has agreed to lead this walk. \nThe walk will last about 2 hours. It will involve the ascent and descent of some steep terrain over ground that is rough in places. Please bring water-proofs and wear appropriate footwear. \nIf you are travelling to this event by car and are able to offer a lift to someone without transport\, or alternatively would appreciate a lift to the event\, please let us know when booking. \nPLEASE NOTE: Booking for this event is by email only.

SUMMARY:EP4 - Swift Sites of Arnside
DESCRIPTION:A walk by Peter Moreton of Swifts in the Community. \nSummer would not be summer without the scream of swifts echoing through our streets. But this iconic sound of summer may soon be gone forever – swift populations are currently plummeting as modern building practices increasingly deprive the birds of their traditional\, long-standing nesting sites. \nThis walk\, led by Peter Moreton\, will be around Arnside showing participants where swifts can be seen to best advantage in the brief summer period when they are around\, although the swifts themselves will\, of course\, have long gone by September.  Participants will also be given guidance on how to provide for these wonderful birds. \nThe walk will commence at 2pm and will last about 2 hours. \nUnsuitable for dogs. \nPLEASE NOTE: Booking for this event is by email only.

SUMMARY:EP7 -  Kent Estuary Natural History Walk
