Don't Mow Let It Grow

This exciting project is led by Causeway Coast to focus on the conservation of semi-natural grassland over the next three years.

Rasharkin Cemetery

This grassland is to the rear of the cemetery and with some good meadow management this could be transformed into a tradition hay meadow, with red clover, buttercups, fine grasses and sedges.

2017 Update:

The large field at the back of the cemetery has responded really well to last years late cut and bale. We only found a single common spotted orchid last year but now there are two large patches of flowering spikes. It just shows what one years positive management can achieve.

Amenities

When exploring the verges and open space grasslands you may come across interesting findings.
