Devonshire Road Nature Reserve
Devonshire Road Nature Reserve forms part of the Forest Hill to New Cross Gate railway cutting.
This is a Site of Metropolitan Importance for Nature Conservation - as it contains probably the finest suite of railside wildlife habitat in London.
Bumblebees and honeybees keep our countryside alive and beautiful, and ensure we can harvest our grain, seeds, fruit and nuts. Without them it would be a very bleak world. Climate change, intensive farming practices and disease epidemics threaten our native bee populations and they need all the help they can get to keep their numbers up.
Gardens can be excellent corridors between the hive and the flowering meadows and hedgerows that bees need to keep on buzzing and doing their valuable job.
