It is one example of a very small number of unimproved neutral grasslands remaining in the Severn Vale near Innsworth and Twigworth.[1] It is used for the production of hay and stock grazing, and Natural England reports the status of this in September 2011.[3] FloraThe meadow is old ridge and furrow grassland which has been traditionally managed. The dominant grasses are Common Bent, Red Fescue, Crested Dog’s-tail and Yorkshire Fog. Flowering herbs include Cowslip, Pepper Saxifrage, Yellow-rattle, Ox-eye Daisy, Great Burnet, the Green-winged Orchid and Corky-fruited Water Dropwort.[1] There are thick Hawthorn hedges, with some Ash trees on three sides.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 Natural England SSSI information on the citation 2. ^Tewkesbury Borough Local Plan to 2011, adopted March 2006, Appendix 3 'Nature Conservation', Sites of Special Scientific Interest 3. ^Natural England SSSI information on the Innsworth Meadow unit SSSI Source
