Green Light
These reserves are considered well worth the travelling time to visit, even if you don't live locally. 'Green' sites tend to have several of the following attributes: good access, parking, waymarked wildlife walks, hides, scenic landscape, large size, sufficient interest to warrant a longer visit.

 

Amber Light
Worth a visit for a shorter period of time. The sites may have several of the attributes found at 'green' sites but may be smaller in size and hold less interest.

 

Red Light
Worth a visit if you live locally. These sites tend to be small and lack most of the attributes of 'green' and 'amber' sites. They are nevertheless important for
conservation.

Nature Reserves

The map below shows our Nature Reserves across Warwickshire, Coventry and Solihull. You will find more details in our Nature Reserves Handbook, available from the Trust Office at Brandon Marsh Nature Centre, which is FREE to members.


You can also view the locations of our reserves in a © Google map through this link

About one third of our Nature Reserves are owned by the Trust, with nearly a half owned by local councils and managed in partnership with the Trust.  The remainder are privately owned, with the Trust looking after the reserve with the agreement of the owners.

The position of the main entrance is given with a six-figure grid reference, so that you can use the Ordnance Survey 1:50,000 Landranger Series maps to find them.

 

Where the reserves have locked car parks, use the Trust combination padlock fitted to the gate - the lock will open when the hasp is pushed into the lock body. Please lock the gate after you enter the car park and when you leave.

Please contact the Trust Office or the person listed for each reserve if you want to visit with an organised party, or if you would like to help with practical management work or with wildlife recording. Specimens may only be taken if you have written permission from the Trust.

SSSI is short for Site of Special Scientific Interest and
LNR stands for Local Nature Reserve.

 

Please let us know of any damage or other problems. We hope you enjoy your visit!
