New National Nature Reserve - May 2024

New National Nature Reserve - May 2024
Keswick, United Kingdom (GB)
On Wednesday 23rd May 2024, The Guardian Newspaper in the UK, reported the Borrowdale Temperate Rainforest in the English Lake District had been declared a National Nature Reserve ("NNR").

The valley regularly sees the highest rainfall in England and is as wet as a tropical rainforest, but obviously is much cooler. The heavy precipitation has given rise to the Atlantic oakwood and Celtic woodland which was once common across western Europe.
