The Green Insurance Company at Coshogle Phase 1


This scheme is just off the A76 near Enterkinfoot in Dumfries and Galloway. The establishment plan aims to increase the native woodland contingent within the scheme to facilitate sustainable carbon sequestration whilst creating a habitat corridor to encourage a variety of  priority biodiversity action plan species. The woodland  will help protect, preserve and enhance the adjacent Coshogle site of special scientific interest (SSSI) and link it with the Menock SSSI.
