Rotherfield Demonstration Project Blog

This morning – while sipping on my Italian cappuccino - I was greeted by ‘my’ grey partridge pair just outside my kitchen window.

Sitting on my garden bench at the back of my cottage garden on the Rotherfield estate in Hampshire fills me with great satisfaction and joy as I spend a relaxing half an hour after having returned from an office bound day’s work.

Welcome to our new blog, which is all about our exciting wild game restoration project at Rotherfield in Hampshire. We are working with the owners who are passionate about farming and wildlife and share our ambitious aims: to bring back a viable population of grey partridges to an area where they had gone extinct.
