It was notified under Section 28 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, and the local planning authority is Central Bedfordshire Council.[1][2] The site is managed by the Wildlife Trust for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire.[3] MeadowThe meadows are mainly ancient ridge and furrow, and are unimproved neutral grassland traditionally managed for hay and grazing.[1] Plants include cowslips, ragged-robin, great burnet, common spotted orchid, red fescue, meadow fescue, crested dog’s-tail, sweet vernalgrass, sedges and meadowsweet. More importantly, a variety of herbs that were common in old meadows but now rare in the county grow there, such as pepper saxifrage, green-winged orchid, dropwort, saw-wort and adder's tongue.[1][3] WoodlandThe woodland (sometimes referred to as Chalton Spinney) is made up of pedunculate oak, ash and alder species. In the spring, a large number of bluebells[4] cover the woodland, along with primroses and field maple. The wood is the only recorded site in the county for the hybrid sedge Carex pseudaxillaris. There is also a small pond.[1][3] AccessThere is access from Luton Road north of Fancott.[2] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url= http://www.sssi.naturalengland.org.uk/citation/citation_photo/1000520.pdf|title=Fancott Woods and Meadows citation|series= Sites of Special Scientific Interest|publisher=Natural England|accessdate= 25 August 2015}} {{SSSIs Bedfordshire}}{{Wildlife Trust for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire}}{{coord|51.937| -0.51|type:landmark_region:GB-BNE|display=title}}2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://magic.defra.gov.uk/MagicMap.aspx?startTopic=Designations&activelayer=sssiIndex&query=HYPERLINK%3D%271000520%27 |title=Map of Fancott Woods and Meadows|series= Sites of Special Scientific Interest|publisher=Natural England|accessdate= 25 August 2015}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.wildlifebcn.org/reserves/fancott-woods-meadows|title=Fancott Woods and Meadows|publisher=Wildlife Trust for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire|accessdate=25 August 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150905154138/http://www.wildlifebcn.org/reserves/fancott-woods-meadows#|archive-date=2015-09-05|dead-url=yes|df=}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.breathingplaces.org/public/place_by_name/Fancott-Woods-Meadows?id=21185 |title=BBC Breathing Places listing |publisher=British Broadcasting Corporation/The Wildlife Trust |accessdate=30 October 2010 }}{{dead link|date=December 2016 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} 4 : Sites of Special Scientific Interest in Bedfordshire|Wildlife Trust for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire reserves|Meadows in Bedfordshire|Forests and woodlands of Bedfordshire |
