On April 4th with warm afternoon sunshine after the late snow we had over the weekend I visited the country park.  This is a site that we have monitored for several years now.  The number of refugia there is now low but the numbers of animals under the remaining refugia are very high.  There were slow worm in large numbers, two basking adders and one lizard in the lower field area. Some sensitive vegetation clearance is now needed this winter to keep the bramble under control and open up basking areas.  This would be a good task for a  KRAG work party.
