We were commissioned to carry out a bat survey of two barns in the Gwent Levels in Marshfield, Newport South Wales. The barns were proposed for conversion to form two residential dwellings.
Bats and their roosts are fully protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017. As such, you may require a bat survey. The objective of a bat survey is to establish the presence / likely absence of the bat roosts within trees and buildings, to identify the activity of bats across the site and key commuting and foraging routes and to recommend ecological mitigation and enhancement where required.
Acer Ecology’s fully licensed ecologists are experienced in bat surveys, European Protected Species licensing, and mitigation design and implementation and supervision of works. We regularly undertake bat surveys across Newport County and South Wales from our Cardiff office.
