Lovely to hear from local people of the magic of Clyne Common, Gower, at public inquiry into common-land swap. 'A wonderland'. Replacement land (right) is 2 boring fields, 2 kms away.

@Alunjt69Thomas @IoloWilliams2 Hi Alun. We've identified plenty of section 7 species here including slowworms, adders, bats. We've been advised that otters and polecats are likely present and that we have the right habitat for marsh fritillaries.
English
Any locals able to help protect this common from development?

@IoloWilliams2 The bluebells seem late this year but they're always a joy. Sadly the planned development would go right through this part of the Common. 😭 We're challenging the deregistration but we're not experts. If anyone can help we'd love to hear from you. Thanks.
