Northern
United, Forest of Dean
Keystone were
initially brought onto the project
to undertake a bat survey of all buildings.
During the survey a National Status
Lesser Horseshoe maternity roost was
discovered. The building housing the
roost was condemned and at risk of
falling down. We therefore designed
a replacement roost which involved
close liaison with SWERDA, English
Nature and Forest Enterprise. Having
designed the roost we were responsible
for overseeing external contractors
build the roost. Since its construction
in 2003 we have been responsible for
conducting an annual monitoring programme
of the existing roosts and new roost
site.
The project
was covered on BBC Points West as
well as being published in various
local newspapers.
