Abstract/Summary
Countryside Survey is a unique study or ‘audit’ of the natural resources of the UK’s countryside. The Survey has been carried out at regular intervals since 1978. The countryside is sampled and studied using rigorous scientific methods, allowing us to compare new results with those from previous surveys. In this way we can detect the gradual and subtle changes that occur in the UK’s countryside over time. This report provides estimates of the area of ash trees (Fraxinus excelsior) in Great Britain in woods <0.5ha in size, the number of individual ash trees, the extent of ash in linear features and the trends in ash distribution in fixed vegetation plots. The areal extent of other common Broadleaf tree species are also provided.
