Brampton Meadow SSSI: a case of institutional amnesia?

This is a well-documented case of a well-meaning attempt to save part of an SSSI by translocating species-rich grassland that failed because of a lack of monitoring and management following the initial work.

Brampton Meadow Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) lies to the north-west of the village of Brampton, in Cambridgeshire (in the old county of Huntingdonshire). It is one of four SSSIs lying wholly within or near the Parish boundary.
