Newt fencing this week as part of the expansion to Tidworth Garrison for Aspire – several 100m worth of it! It’s been erected to allow more building and expansion of the garrisons as troops return to Salisbury Plain.
It’s a simple plastic barrier trenched into the ground by 6in to stop reptiles burying underneath and approx. 3ft high with a rolled top to prevent anything climbing up and over. It is erected where protected wildlife are likely to enter a construction site and be harmed, usually European Protected species.
