Stoke Fleming Living Churchyard
Enhancing biodiversity in St Peter's churchyard
Our Project
The aim of the Living Churchyard project is to enhance and manage the churchyard,
creating a sustainable haven for wildlife and in turn making a more pleasant place for the people of the community.
It is a unique habitat because it has been uncultivated and enclosed for hundreds of years; our plan is to conserve what is already here, and to increase the number and variety of native plants and creatures.
"B-Lines"
Our Living Churchyard project is part of the UK-wide 'B-Lines' project to build a 'super highway' for insects and birds - creating 'stepping stones' between wildflower rich areas.
B-Lines aims to create and restore at least 150,000 hectares of flower-rich habitat across the UK.
Friends of St Peter's
