Description: This dataset shows areas within the Midlands Heartland Heathland corridor, which, according to their soils and historic habitats, may be suitable for heathland creation. The data provides evidence to aid the targetining of heathland restoration and creation in a crucial landscape corridor.
Heathland suitability Areas were defined with reference to Cranfield University Soils Data, which informed the identification of broad areas where the soil category types would typically support heathland, as well as the Historic Heathland Extent layer.
For a full description of the methodology see the following report: Midlands Heathland Heartland Lowland: Heathland Nature Recovery Opportunity Mapping.
