Please provide the following information:

1. A list (including address and postcode) of any of the following that are found within the local authority:

a) Local Nature Reserves (LNRs)
Local Nature Reserves are available direct from Natural England and their Magic Map service: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/how-to-access-natural-englands-maps-and-data. Also available on our Planning Constraints web map app: https://wokingham.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=b3256c174df642999bb4d55c5993ef2e

b) Non-Statutory Nature Reserves
We are unsure what this is asking. If this is referencing sites owned privately by Wildlife Trusts, etc, then it is not the Councils responsibility to hold this data.

c) Local Wildlife Sites
This is a list that is compiled, owned and updated by Thames Valley Environmental Records Centre. The data should be obtained from them although the locations can be viewed using our Planning Constraints web map app.

d) Sites of Nature Conservation Interest (SNCls)
Sites of Nature Conservation Interest is a different name for what we term local wildlife sites. See above.

e) Any other area that has been designated by the Local Authority as having distinct ecological value and which would require any building work or property development to comply with specific requirements.
Our local plan policies recognise rivers and ancient woodland as having distinct ecological value and would require development to comply with specific requirements. River data can be obtained from the Environment Agency. Ancient woodland data can be obtained from Natural England. Also available to view on our Planning Constraints web map app.
