Marton Village, Warwickshire

Wildflower Identification Guide

Marton Parish Council led a project in 2020 to introduce areas of wildflower meadows to the playing fields and surrounding areas.

The seed mix was chosen to provide a variety of species over following years, which can be identified with this guide.

Thank you to residents Dr Joan Sherratt for producing the guide and Dr Nick Steggall for overseeing the seed choices and sowing.

Thanks also to the funders, Severn Trent Community Fund and Warwickshire Councillors’ Grant Fund and the many volunteers who gave time and energy to the project.

We hope you enjoy the improved biodiversity of the area. If you need to report any related issues, please email clerk@martonvillage.com.

Marton Butterflies and Birds

We now have a new Website Groups page on here called “Marton Nature”. You can also find it in the top menu on this site (see above). Below is an example of the photos taken.

These butterflies will be present in your gardens soon and some will already be there! What are they? Which plants do they love in your garden?

And what about these birds? What are they? Can you identify them?
