Work is underway to restore rare a rare lowland heathland habitat in a forest in the Vale of Glamorgan.

Lowland heathland is a threatened habitat mainly found in north-west Europe and characterised by heathers, gorse and grasses.

The UK has lost 80% of this important habitat during the last two centuries, but still retains 20% of the world’s lowland heathland.
