Nature Recovery Network map of the Midlands Heartland Heathland area including Core Habitats (Primary and Associated Habitats), Heathland Creation Opportunity areas and Secondary Enhancement Areas. The data provides evidence to aid the targeting of heathland restoration and creation in a crucial landscape corridor. A number of information sources and data layers were used to produce this layer. The Primary, Associated and Restorable habitat polygons were produced based on habitat and species data held by EcoRecord and SER to complement NE priority habitat inventory data. Heathland Creation Opportunity areas were identified based on a number of environmental criteria including historic landuse, habitats, and soils. For a full description of the methodology see the following report: Midlands Heathland Heartland Lowland: Heathland Nature Recovery Opportunity Mapping.
