Burngreave Green Audit - April 2004

The Green Audit is a survey of what green space there is in Burngreave and how it affects the local community, what its wildlife value is, what its historical importance is and what is its potential for improvement.

It is available here as a series of PDF documents (right). You can download information about a green space near you and find out its history, what wildlife lives there and how the community uses it.

You will need Adobe Acrobat or similar software to download these files. Download times may vary.

The Audit is also available to read in the Burngreave Library and the BNDfC Info Shop on Spital Hill.
