Description: Species rich floodplain meadows are still found along some rivers in England and Wales. There are approximately 1100 ha of Burnet floodplain meadow (MG4) and approximately 1880 ha of the Kingcup-carnation sedge meadow (MG8) remaining in the UK.

This dataset contains all known areas of Burnet floodplain meadow (MG4) some Kingcup-carnation sedge meadow (MG8), some restoration sites and some other sites that the Floodplain Meadows Partnership have collected information from. It is not comprehensive, nor specific to one grassland type. Please remember that many of the sites shown on the map are in private ownership and do not have public access.

You can use this layer to find out more about floodplain meadows in your local area and to help identify areas for floodplain meadow restoration.

The Floodplain Meadows Partnership would really like to hear your observations on your local meadow, whether you own it, are responsible for its management, walk through it or can remember something about it from the past. They are particularly interested in current management information, for example when the hay was cut, when the site was grazed, whether it floods and if so, dates. They are also interested in your memories of a particular meadow and whether you have noticed any changes. All this information helps to interpret data that are collected on sites and gives a better understanding of how meadows might be changing over time. You can contact the Floodplain Meadows Partnership HERE.
