Coalville Meadows
Coalville Meadows is a Site of Special Scientific Interest situated in Coalville, North West Leicestershire, England. It one of the best examples of neutral grassland that has developed on the somewhat leached clay soils of Leicestershire and is representative of such grassland in Central and Eastern England.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= SSSI notification )
Coalville Meadows covers an area , bounded on the West by a former minerals railway line, to the South by social housing, the east by Holly Hayes Woodland, and to the North by an aggregate storage area, and have developed on soils derived from the clays of the Triassic Keuper Marl. The grassland is poorly drained and is dominated by tufted hair-grass ''Deschampsia caespitosa'', Yorkshire fog ''Holcus lanatus'', red fescue ''Festuca rubra'' and great burnet ''Sanguisorba officinalis''. Additionally, flora typical of relatively basepoor clay soils, such as pignut ''Conopodium majus'', betony ''Betonica officinalis'', heath bedstraw ''Galium saxatile'', tormentil ''Potentilla erecta'', devil's-bit scabious ''Succisa pratensis'', and mat grass ''Nardus stricta'', are present. The grassland also includes typical meadow species as saw-wort ''Serratula tinctoria'', meadow thistle ''Cirsium dissectum'', knapweed ''Centaurea nigra'' and lady's smock ''Cardamine pratensis''.
The site is recorded by English Nature as ‘at risk’, due to an absence of grassland management. In the past this was achieved by cattle, but the livestock were removed from the Meadow due to persistent attacks on the stock by local youths.
In 2008, the site was bought by the Friends of Holly Hayes Wood who wanted to see the meadow land restored to its former glory. The group is working with Natural England to re-establish appropriate maintenance which it hoped will lead to a more appropriate 'favourable' status and to ensure that the meadow is meeting its conservation objectives.
