Clyde Valley Woodlands : ウィキペディア英語版 | Clyde Valley Woodlands National Nature Reserve
The Clyde Valley Woodlands National Nature Reserve is a nature reserve made up of six separate sites in the Clyde Valley region of South Lanarkshire, Scotland. Those sites are Cartland Craigs (known locally as Cartland Crags), Chatelherault, Cleghorn Glen, Falls of Clyde, Mauldslie Woods and Lower Nethan Gorge. Five of the six sites, located in and around the towns of Lanark, Lesmahagow and Hamilton, are designated Sites of Special Scientific Interest because of the abundance of native woodland found within them, as well as other rare flora. Mauldslie Woods near Carluke has been described as an experimental addition to the National Nature Reserve and has no other official designation. Some endangered species also exist within the sites. The most prime example is the Falls of Clyde, in which there are endangered peregrine falcons and rare tundra plant life that has survived on a cliff face since the last Ice Age. ==History== The reserve's history began 10,000 years ago when melting glaciers began eroding the red sandstone in the area, forming the valleys and gorges that make up the reserve.〔
