Last week, the Dorset National Landscape team swapped the office for muddy boots… helping plant a new traditional community orchard on a FiPL‑funded project 🍎🍐🍒 Big thanks to Victor Crutchley at Crutchley Farms for welcoming us. Great teamwork and rare winter sunshine!

A curious black‑and‑white cow stands at the front of a small group of cattle, leaning over a wooden fence and stretching its nose toward the camera. Its large nostrils, soft muzzle, and fine whiskers dominate the foreground, creating a playful, close‑up perspective. Behind it, several other cows gather closely, their heads angled toward the lens as if equally interested. The animals stand in a bright green pasture under a partly cloudy blue sky, with a farm building and distant hills visible

Another fantastic Farming in Protected Landscapes #FiPL funded project. 👏
These lovely new gates at Ringstones Clough & Stoneheads are now in place which will make things much easier for walkers, runners, mountain bikers & horse riders who use this ancient route between Whaley & Furness Vale. 🥾🚲🐴
I should add, for any Dartmoor folk, that the #DNPA still has funds left in its #FIPL pot and are keen to support additional land-based projects that can be completed by February 2026.
We're very happy to announce we have been successful! So, our thanks to the Peak District National Park Authority who manage #FiPL. This autumn will see us out in the fields obtaining samples for dating! #OSL #Archaeology #Science #CommunityHeritage #CommunityEngagement #PeakDistrict #Staffordshire
🤞Today's the day the #FiPL panel meets and we have submitted a bid for funds to allow us to undertake a programme of dating on the field system here at Under Whitle. #PeakDistrict #OSL #Archaeology #CommunityEngagement #CommunityHeritage
