Where our Nation remembers

ENVIRONMENT

The National Memorial Arboretum sits within the National Forest and covers 150 acres of reclaimed gravel workings.

The young site has a wide variety of natural habitats including emerging woodland, hay meadows, riverbank and marsh. Each of these has its own flora and fauna.

The site benefits from a very wide range of special trees, many chosen for symbolic reasons and offering a varied study of leaves, growth, uses and origin.

The variety of habitats within the Arboretum site illustrate the biodiversity of the area. Birds and animals include several species highlighted in the Staffordshire Biodiversity Action Plan - these include the skylark, lapwing, brown hare, otter and several species of bat.
