Meeting details

Hudnalls is a National Nature Reserve on a steep slope going down to the River Wye. It is woodland with boulders and a couple of small streams. Richard Lansdown found Jubula hutchinsiae by one of the streams in 2014 and Claire and Pete refound in 2019 (still there in October 2024). Claire and Pete recorded 50-60 species in 2019 but no doubt more remains to be found.

Parking has always been a problem, which is why we haven’t visited the reserve as a group before. However we have been contacted by the reserve manager who would like a bryophyte survey of the site and will help with parking. We have room for potentially 3 or 4 cars, so it is important to let us know if you are coming to the meeting (email Wendy, Claire or Pete). Depending on numbers we might have to meet up in St Briavels and go on to the site together in fewer cars.
