Went to the estate today.

Got to see some Purple Emperor butterflies (which was the main reason for our visit today). There were just a couple flapping high up in the treetops but they were there nonetheless. We also saw some fallow deer, some storks, a pig and a variety of other butterflies.

What a great place to spend an afternoon 🥰

Conventional arable cultivation at the £13.75m Boothby Lodge farm is being halted in order to return the land to nature along the lines of the rewilded Knepp estate in West Sussex.

Kate Green, whose property adjoins the farm, said: “There is a lot of hostility to it locally. But we are very much in support of it. It’s like a green desert here. We don’t see any ground-nesting birds, we don’t see any kestrels hovering.”

"The large tortoiseshell mysteriously vanished more than 50 years ago but this week male and female butterflies – much larger than the small tortoiseshell and without its white patterning – have been spotted at Knepp for the first time."
