A site not qualifying as of national importance for the wildlife it contains (ie a SSSI) but regarded to be of local importance for wildlife, its importance being merited in a parish, district, borough or county context. Such sites are often called non-statutory wildlife sites as they do not have statutory protection like SSSIs, but are recognised in local plans. In Bucks Local Wildlife Sites have been called Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation and Biological Notification Sites. |
