Ulex europaeus
Large areas are covered by scrub, dominated by gorse ("Ulex europaeus") and blackthorn ("Prunus spinosa") and provide habitat for invertebrates and birds. Common dodder ("Cuscuta epithymum") parasitises the gorse. A number of wet flushes occur along the coast dominated by common reed ("Phragmites australis"). A small area of woodland dominated by elm ("Ulmus glabra") and sycamore has developed on abandoned horticultural plots.
