The Director of the Manx Wildlife Trust says the acquisition of a new reserve in the north of the Island is great news both for the Trust and the Island's wildlife in general.
The 13 acre plot of mixed habitat is close to the Trust's Goshen reserve in the Ballaugh Curragh and its purchase is the culmination of three years fund raising to raise the £50,000 required.
Duncan Bridges says the reserve contains some rare habitat on the Island:
