Butterflies included painted lady, brimstone and lots of large skippers and meadow browns.
Moths included silver Y, yellowshell, clouded silver and timothy tortrix.
Dragonflies included several black-tailed skimmers plus four-spotted chaser. Hundreds of azure, common blue and blue-tailed damselflies.

Plus an excellent display of wildflowers including large patches of grass vetchling and kidney vetch.

Will certainly be stopping off now know where to park.
