Data provider: Harestone Moss Limited
Low-lying grasslands and peaty soil are the dominant feature of Harestone Moss, just north of Aberdeen. Intensively farmed for many decades, the site served as a ‘Q-site’ decoy airfield in the Second World War. It even has its own bomb craters to prove it. Now it is being transformed: the intensity of the farming is being significantly dialled back, a unique underground tourist enterprise is being created with recycled infrastructure, and nature is being allowed to flourish around restored wetlands

The Harrow Nature Conservation Forum is an entirely volunteer organization that supports the work of the volunteer wardens of nature reserves and wild open spaces in Harrow as well as encouraging surveying and biodiversity enhancement throughout the borough. All HNCF wardens note interesting species on their sites and report them to our central database. In addition we regularly perform more formal surveys covering many different taxonomical groups.

This group will survey areas such as cemeteries, parks and small undeveloped plots of land.
