The phenomenon of urban sprawl, as towns spread to accommodate ever
increasing populations, has inevitably led to a loss of parkland, woodland and farmland.
This has results in the destruction of the habitats of much of our flora and fauna with the
result that species of once abundant plants and animals are becoming rare or even
endangered.
However, one unexpected urban refuge of rare plant-life is the churchyards of
England. A wealth of flowers, plant and birds flourishes undisturbed and unnoticed in
these quiet corners of our towns and cities. These areas, often ancient pastureland, have
developed a rich soil fertility attractive to lime-loving plants. With these wild plants
come the insects and, every summer, the varied species of butterflies.
Conservationists are now concerned that civic and church authorities collaborate
to enable these oases of the natural world to survive. If they are successful, urban
children may find that their nature study field trips take them no further than the local
churchyard.
