Knepp Estate
14 SWT staff, one man and his dog
On the 16th May we were lucky enough to be invited to the Knepp Estate in Sussex. A number of us from across teams came along to be inspired by the stories and work carried out on the estate made famous recently by the book and film ‘Wilding’. We had a talk from Charlie Burrell and then a tour followed by a debriefing session to agree on what we would then take back with us to Somerset.

IT’S BIG
Although the scale of the estate is so much more than we could hope for one reserve. It shows the importance of landscape scale delivery. Bigger is better!
There are many things we agreed we can take home back to Somerset and carry on the conversation. We all agreed that getting out and being inspired by other sites is good for the soul!
