A hedgerow survey in County Cavan will get underway in the coming weeks.
Funding to undertake this survey has been secured through the National Biodiversity Action Plan Funding 2023.
The key objective of the project is to gain an overview of hedgerows in County Cavan in terms of extent and condition from a biodiversity, historical and for a cultural perspective.

The Cavan Heritage office says hedgerows will be scored under a variety of headings including historical significance, species diversity, structure and landscape significance.
The survey data will be useful now to provide an overview of Cavan’s hedgerows but will also be invaluable baseline data against which any future surveys may be compared.
