Natural England’s SSSI Designation
As expected, Natural England has designated parts of the Penwith moors as an SSSI following an at times stormy meeting in St. Ives on June 28th. The reasoning is tagged as ’30 by 30’: for the UK to make an international contribution to the protection of at least 30% of its land for nature by 2030. Officers explained at the meeting that this can then support nature recovery to spread beyond designation.

CPRE Cornwall has now received a formal response from Natural England following submission of our ‘objection’ to the SSSI designation on the Penwith Moors.
Members may recall that CPRE Cornwall has objected to Natural England proposals for SSSI status on the Penwith Moors as they stand.
