Shoresearch March 2025 Survey (2) - Glenthorne (County Gate)
About the event
This survey includes a strenuous walk down to this remote beach along steep and uneven footpaths descending 1000 feet (300m) and ascending again after the survey!
Join our team of local volunteers to carry out a seashore survey as part of an ongoing survey of intertidal habitats along the Somerset coast. The data are being collated as part of a national survey being carried out by Wildlife Trusts across the UK. You do not need to have any prior experience of ecological survey work or of seashore ecology as there will be experts on hand to assist you. Both complete beginners and people already trained in the Shoresearch methods are very welcome. Somerset Wildlife Trust will provide all the sampling kit, survey sheets and identification guides.
Our volunteer team have not surveyed this shore on the Somerset/Devon border before and we may find some different species and so we are very excited to visit it and hope the hike up and down (with some great views en-route) will be worth it!
