Thetford Heath is a fine example of Breckland grass heath, with a wide sweep of open landscape, home to many of the rare and specialist species so typical of the area. Access during the summer months is by permit only for special projects. Main habitats: Breckland grass heath Management: Norfolk Wildlife Trust The reserve is made up of an expanse of acid and chalk grassland, together with smaller areas of heather and lichen dominated heathland. Sheep and rabbit grazing combine on this site to provide the short grassland and bare ground on which so many of Breckland’s specialist plants, invertebrates and birds depend.
