This site was originally designated in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (UK) for qualifying habitats listed on Annex I of European Council Directive 92/43/EEC on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora, known as the Habitats Directive. The Annex I habitats listed in field 3.1 of the Standard Data Form at this site have been matched with habitats listed on Resolution No. 4 (1996) of the Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats (Bern Convention), but the correspondence between Annex I habitats and Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitats do not always correspond exactly. In some cases, only a partial translation was possible.The UK does not have information on the extent of Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitats either on SACs or more generally. As a result of splitting an Annex I habitat to more than one Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat it is not possible to recalculate a ‘true’ Representativity score.The following Annex I habitat(s) were fully translated into a Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat: Annex I habitat 1110 Sandbanks which are slightly covered by sea water all the time translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat A5 Sublittoral sediment; Annex I habitat 1210 Annual vegetation of drift lines translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat B2.1 Shingle beach driftlines; Annex I habitat 1230 Vegetated sea cliffs of the Atlantic and Baltic Coasts translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat B3.3 Rock cliffs, ledges and shores, with angiosperms; Annex I habitat 1330 Atlantic salt meadows (Glauco-Puccinellietalia maritimae) translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat A2.5 Coastal saltmarshes and saline reedbeds.The following Annex I habitats have a many to many relationship between Annex I habitats and Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitats. In effect, at least one of the Annex I features is partially split, and then part of the split is merged with the translation of another Annex I feature: Annex I habitats 1170 Reefs and 8330 Submerged or partially submerged sea caves were translated to Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitats A1.44 Communities of littoral caves and overhangs, A3 Infralittoral rock and other hard substrata and A4 Circalittoral rock and other hard substrata. This means the relationship between these Annex I and Resolution No. 4 (1996) features is very complex. It was not possible to divide the area of the Annex I habitats between the Resolution No. 4 (1996) EUNIS habitats to which the Annex I habitats have been translated.  This site was originally designated for qualifying species listed on Annex II of European Council Directive 92/43/EEC on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora, known as the Habitats Directive.

This site was originally designated for qualifying species listed on Annex II of European Council Directive 92/43/EEC on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora, known as the Habitats Directive. The Annex II species listed in field 3.2 of the Standard Data Form at this site have been matched with species listed on Resolution No. 6 (1998) of the Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats (Bern Convention).  Water courses of plain to montane levels with the Ranunculion fluitantis and Callitricho-Batrachion vegetation for which the area is considered to support a significant presence.

As a result of splitting an Annex I habitat to more than one Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat it is not possible to recalculate a ‘true’ Representativity score.The following Annex I habitat(s) were fully translated into a Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat: Annex I habitat 4010 Northern Atlantic wet heaths with Erica tetralix translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat F4.1 Wet heaths; Annex I habitat 4030 European dry heaths translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat F4.2 Dry heaths; Annex I habitat 7130 Blanket bogs (* if active bog) translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat D1.2 Blanket bogs; Annex I habitat 91A0 Old sessile oak woods with Ilex and Blechnum in the British Isles translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat G1.8 Acidophilous Quercus-dominated woodland.The following Annex I habitat(s) were partially translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat(s): Annex I habitat 7140 Transition mires and quaking bogs was partially translated to Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat D2.3 Transition mires and quaking bogs. According to UK national experts, a full translation would include translation to EUNIS habitat D2.1 Valley mires which is not listed on Resolution No. 4 (1996). The area of the Annex I habitat 7140 was 325.12 hectares. It was not possible to divide the area of the Annex I habitat(s) between the Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat(s) to which the Annex I habitat(s) has been translated.  Northern Atlantic wet heaths with Erica tetralix for which the area is considered to support a significant presence.  European dry heaths for which this is considered to be one of the best areas in the United Kingdom.  Transition mires and quaking bogs for which the area is considered to support a significant presence.  Old sessile oak woods with Ilex and Blechnum in the British Isles for which this is considered to be one of the best areas in the United Kingdom.  Blanket bogs for which this is considered to be one of the best areas in the United Kingdom.

In effect, at least one of the Annex I features is split, and the part of the split is merged with the translation of another Annex I feature: Annex I habitats 7140 Transition mires and quaking bogs and 7150 Depressions on peat substrates of the Rhynchosporion were merged into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat D2.3 Transition mires and quaking bogs, plus, according to UK national experts, to EUNIS habitat D2.1 Valley mires which is not listed on Resolution No. 4 (1996). This means the relationship between these Annex I and Resolution No. 4 (1996) features is very complex.
