Local Wildlife Sites
From mystical ancient woodlands, quiet churchyards, bustling flower-rich roadsides, field-bordering hedgerows to tiny copses, Powys enjoys special, often unnoticed wild places where nature thrives.
Whether they are in the depths of the countryside or nestled in busy towns, these Local Wildlife Sites (LWS) are exceptional areas of land.
They are identified and selected locally by partnerships of local authorities (Powys County Council), nature conservation charities (The Wildlife Trusts), statutory agencies, ecologists and local nature experts including County Recorders.
They use robust, scientifically-determined criteria and detailed ecological surveys. Their selection is based on the most important, distinctive and threatened species and habitats within an international, national, regional and local context. This makes them some of our most valuable areas.
