The West meadow at Gutteridge Wood is “unimproved” grassland, which means it has not been heavily fertilised for grazing, but kept in a natural state with a good diversity of flowers. This makes a better habitat for insects and other wildlife, but, as with all meadows, taller and more vigorous plants would take over, given a chance. Winter is the time to cut back the scrub which gradually grows in from the edges if left unchecked.
