QUALITY:
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 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 4080 Sub-Arctic Salix spp. scrub translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat F2.32 Subalpine and oroboreal Salix brush; Annex I habitat 6430 Hydrophilous tall herb fringe communities of plains and of the montane to alpine levels translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat E5.5 Subalpine moist or wet tall-herb and fern stands; Annex I habitat 7130 Blanket bogs (* if active bog) translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat D1.2 Blanket bogs; Annex I habitat 7140 Transition mires and quaking bogs translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat D2.3 Transition mires and quaking bogs; Annex I habitat 8110 Siliceous scree of the montane to snow levels (Androsacetalia alpinae and Galeopsietalia ladani) translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat H2.3 Temperate-montane acid siliceous screes; Annex I habitat 8210 Calcareous rocky slopes with chasmophytic vegetation translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat H3.2 Basic and ultra-basic inland cliffs; Annex I habitat 8220 Siliceous rocky slopes with chasmophytic vegetation translated into Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat H3.1 Acid siliceous inland cliffs; 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 6150 Siliceous alpine and boreal grasslands was partially translated to Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitat E4.3 Acid alpine and subalpine grassland. According to UK national experts, a full translation would include translation to EUNIS habitat E4.21 Oroboreal Carex bigelowii-Racomitrium moss-heaths which is not listed on Resolution No. 4 (1996). The area of the Annex I habitat 6150 was 512.2 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.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 split, and then part of the split is merged with the translation of another Annex I feature: Annex I habitats 4060 Alpine and Boreal heaths and 6170 Alpine and subalpine calcareous grasslands were translated to Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitats E4.12 Boreo-alpine calcicline snow-patch grassland and herb habitats and F2.2 Evergreen alpine and subalpine heath and scrub; Annex I habitats 7230 Alkaline fens and 7240 Alpine pioneer formations of Caricion bicoloris-atrofuscae were translated to Resolution No. 4 (1996) habitats D4.1 Rich fens, including eutrophic tall-herb fens and calcareous flushes and soaks and D4.2 Basic mountain flushes and streamsides, with a rich arctic-montane flora. 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.It was not possible to translate the following Annex I habitat(s): Annex I habitat 6230 Species-rich Nardus grasslands, on siliceous substrates in mountain areas (and submountain areas, in Continental Europe) as, according to UK national experts, it matches with EUNIS habitat E1.72 Agrostis - Festuca grassland which is not listed on Resolution No. 4 (1996). The area of the Annex I habitat 6230 was 58.46 hectares.  Sub-Arctic Salix spp. scrub for which this is considered to be one of the best areas in the United Kingdom. which is considered to be rare as its total extent in the United Kingdom is estimated to be less than 10 hectares.

Alkaline fens for which the area is considered to support a significant presence.  Calcareous rocky slopes with chasmophytic vegetation for which this is considered to be one of the best areas in the United Kingdom. which is considered to be rare as its total extent in the United Kingdom is estimated to be less than 1000 hectares.  Siliceous rocky slopes with chasmophytic vegetation for which the area is considered to support a significant presence.  Alpine pioneer formations of the Caricion bicoloris-atrofuscae for which this is considered to be one of the best areas in the United Kingdom. which is considered to be rare as its total extent in the United Kingdom is estimated to be less than 1000 hectares.  Hydrophilous tall herb fringe communities of plains and of the montane to alpine levels for which this is considered to be one of the best areas in the United Kingdom. which is considered to be rare as its total extent in the United Kingdom is estimated to be less than 1000 hectares.
