Nature conservation sites
A series of sites in Barking and Dagenham chosen to represent the best wildlife habitats and emphasising the value of access for people.
Sites are classified into Sites of Metropolitan, Borough and Local Importance for Nature Conservation.
These sites are identified as being of importance for nature conservation under the procedures detailed in 'Policy, criteria and procedures for identifying nature conservation sites in London', adopted by the Mayor of London in his Biodiversity Strategy as the basis for such work in London.
The list has been produced jointly by the Greater London Authority's Biodiversity Strategy team and our officers, and will constitute the recommended sites to be protected for nature conservation in the review of our Development Plan.
It is based on a survey commissioned by the Greater London Authority in 2002 and updates the list of sites in the London Ecology Unit's handbook 'Nature Conservation in Barking and Dagenham' of 1992.
