A brilliant and evolving website dedicated to wildlife within the Vale and its surrounding area. Created by a local resident and wildlife enthusiast.
Ashton Vale Heritage has formed an Alliance with other local groups who are trying to protect valuable Green Space and Green Belt. You can find out about other local groups in Dundry, Whitchurch, Long Ashton, Warmley, Cheltenham and Gloucester, Yanleigh and Barrow Gurney. Visit the web site and join the campaign. Our joint aim is to oppose the removal of the Green Belt status from hundreds of acres of land around Bristol for the development of urban extensions. Use it or lose it.
