Aberduna Nature Reserve & North Wales Wildlife Trust Office (North East) — Attraction in Llanferres

Remember this is a hole in the ground created by a company who bought the land and then dug as deep as they could do in order to sell off the valuable material and dump the rest that was seen as waste A site of 20 hectare that the owner believes there is nothing left that they can profit from (watch out for the development housing need plan. The owning company is willing to give away the control & management of this site to anyone with the funds to advertise a location which is slowly being allowed to recover from the years of stone grinding machines and deliberate neglect simply because it is no longer being worked as a productive site and therefore provides no profit but continues to produce costs related to insurance and maintenance. May we all look at the small print to find out if the Welsh taxpayer own this site or are simply under contract to pay for upkeep? Nature is showing amazing grow back, whilst North Wales Wildlife Trust pat themselves and their organisational back in order to claim that they have the ability to change nature..!

Long story short we need to support the return to nature of this site but always remember this is a brown field site of no special scientific interest and therefore easily included in the local authority...
