These unimproved neutral meadows are cut for hay each year and then grazed. There are also ponds and hedgerows which are probably of ancient origin, and trees include midland hawthorns and wild service-trees.[4]
There is public access to the nature reserve, but the rest of the site is private land with no public access.
