An area of land located near Pyle is set to become part of a local nature reserve this month. The land situated between Pyle and Village Farm Industrial estate will be connected with a neighbouring area known as the Frog Pond Wood Nature Reserve, with the aim of increasing the area's ecological diversity and resilience to climate change.
