Non-technical Summary
i) This report has been prepared at the request of the client, Mr. Steve Robinson c/o Knights LLP ; in
relation to the identification of protected reptile species at Land off Churnet View Road, Oakamoor,
ST10 3AE. The proposed application area off Churnet view road is approximately 1.1 hectares in
coverage, and will involve the creation of a six unit residential dwellings and associated access/drive
road. The development will also include a degree of soft landscaping to areas, with an a 1 ha
woodland strip to be retained.
ii) Aims and objectives of the field survey were to establish presence/absence of reptiles within the
proposed development area. A minimum of seven extant and artificial refugia surveys were
undertaken during the optimum survey season, under suitable weather conditions, and spread out
during May to early July 2014, in order to allow for any temporal variation over space and time and
provide an accurate representation of any reptile activity onsite.
Iii) Given the excellent linear connectivity with surrounding higher ecological value habitats, there is
good potential for reptiles within the survey area. There is a moderate to high degree of artificial and
manmade features onsite that may attract reptiles, including dead wood piles and building debris and
rubble. Conversely, and despite pre-survey information showing presence of reptiles in the
immediate area, the survey results returned no evidence of reptiles onsite. A number of contributing
factors may explain this outcome; The site has undergone recent disturbance due to authorized
clearance of trees and general maintenance, resulting in potential habitat and micro-habitat
degradation; The land is close to residential dwellings and is subject to disturbance by dogs and
potential predation by domestic cats. There are Invasive exotic plant species onsite which may
degrade overall community habitat.
iv) At such, the proposed development area does not meet the register criteria for a Key Reptile Site,
and no mitigation for protected reptile species is considered. However, the land proposed for
development is considered as being highly dynamic, being in a constant transitional flux between
disturbance and seral stages of successional vegetation. This coupled with historic data records,
local knowledge and excellent linear connectivity to surrounding higher ecological value habitats,
would infer good potential for reptiles to (re)colonize, as seral stages continue to establish overtime.
v) Thus it is recommended that Best Practice dictates a precautionary approach in situations of
uncertainty. It is therefore recommended that the site is cleared of extant refugia and selected
vegetation to make it less attractive to fauna overall. Ground clearance should progress in a
systematic fashion from east to west within the application, and be supervised by a suitably qualified
ecologist, who should undertake a finger-tip search ahead of any machinery used. Such works
should be undertaken outside the hibernation period (October to April).

SR/Oakamoor/Reptile survey Land off Churnet View Road, Oakamoor, ST10 3AE Final Draft Issue 1/ August 2014
vi) Further presence/absence surveys would only be deemed necessary, should the recommended pre-
works maintenance and clearance of the site be delayed for more than one year, due to the highly
labile nature of succession, and subsequent increase in refuge potential for any local reptile
populations in the immediate catchment area over space and time.
vii) In addition, the client has happily agreed in principal to the erection of general wildlife fencing around
the proposed development area. This is intended to holistically deter/exclude and minimize potential
impact to any local reptile and/or amphibian populations, plus small mammals that may migrate onto
site during the period prior to works commencing. Although considered unlikely, such fencing will
enable any species interned within the application area to be safely corralled during site preparation,
and ushered out under their own volition, into more optimal receptor areas outside the western
perimeter boundary.

1.0 Introduction
Background
1.1 This report has been prepared at the request of the client, Mr. Steve Robinson c/o Knights LLP ; in
relation to the identification of protected reptile species at Land off Churnet View Road, Oakamoor,
ST10 3AE (OS grid reference SK 04844 45053). The proposed application area off Churnet view
road is approximately 1.1 hectares in coverage, and will involve the creation of a six unit residential
dwellings and associated access/drive road. The development will also include a degree of soft
landscaping to areas, with an ca 0.2 hectares woodland strip to be retained.
1.2 The scope of this survey has been determined in-line with the proportional approach to ecological
survey, assessment and subsequent recommendations for avoidance and mitigation of impacts,
which is encouraged in the emerging ‘BS 42020: Biodiversity – Code of practice for planning and
development’. This report has been prepared with du consideration for various best-practice
guidance and methodologies including those of the Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental
Management (CIEEM (2012)1 and the emerging BS 42020
1.3 Aims and objectives of the field survey were as follows:
• To establish presence/absence of reptiles
• If reptile presence confirmed, to determine species, sex, an approximate density and distribution.
1.4 Habitat was assessed on the following:
• Rough neutral grassland, particularly:
• south-facing and other sunny slopes, including vegetated soil bunds;
• in close proximity to standing water with amphibian populations;
• in close proximity to dry-stone walls or piles of stones;
• in close proximity to areas of bare ground; or
• in close proximity to rock outcrops

Site Characteristics
Figure 1. Location of land (outline in red), off Churnet View Roadin context to the surrounding landscape (source:www.gridref.org.uk).
1.5 The proposed application area off Churnet view road is approximately 1.1 hectares in area, with the
northern bank of the River Churnet forming its southern boundary, this elongated site consists of flat,
recently cleared, naturally regenerating woodland (including several semi-mature and mature trees)
and scrub. The northern boundary of the site is formed by the leeward, wooded valley side
comprising of broadleaf Pedunculate oak Quercus robur, Birch Betula sp., Holly Ilex aquifolium, Goat
willow, Rowan Sorbus aucuparia, Hazel and Elder Sambucus nigra with a Bramble Rubus fruticosus
agg. and Bracken Pteridium aquilinum understorey and scattered Rhododendron Rhododendron
ponticum clumps. with mixed conifer plantation beyond into Carr Wood. A disused railway line with a
few associated outbuildings sits against the western boundary and domestic housing lies to the
eastern boundary. Himalayan balsam Impatiens glandulifera is prevalent throughout the site.
1.6 The central grassland area is a former brownfield site, but has undergone various transitions of
physical disturbance, and regenerating seral-stage succession, resulting in ruderal herbs
(predominantly Great willowherb Epilobium hirsutum) and recolonizing vegetation such as common
grass species, broad-leaved dock Rumex obtusifolius and common ragwort Senecio jacobaea as the
survey period progressed. Thus the site can be considered highly dynamic and in continual flux, with
increasing potential for reptiles as successional colonization continues.
1.7 The ground around out-buildings which adjacent rubble piles at the eastern end of the site is
considered as providing suitable habitat for slow worm Anguis fragilis. There are a number of wood
piles on-site, being a by-product of some of the clearance works started, which provide good
potential of refugia for reptiles.

2.0 Legislation and Status
2.1 The Smooth Snake and Sand Lizard are fully protected under Schedule 5 of The Wildlife and
Countryside Act (1981). As such they receive full protection under Section 9 of this Act. This Act has
been amended several times, most recently by the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 which
added ‘or recklessly’ to Section 9(4) (a) and (b). They also are protected under Regulations 41/42 of
The Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010. Collectively these pieces of legislation
mean that it is an offence to;
• intentionally kill, injure, disturb or take any individual of these species
• intentionally take or destroy the eggs of any individual of these species
• intentionally or recklessly damage, destroy or obstruct access to any structure or place used for
shelter or protection by any individual of these species
• intentionally or recklessly disturb any individual of these species while it is occupying a structure
which it uses for that purpose
• keep, transport, sell or exchange or offer for sale any individual of these species or anything derived
from these species.
2.2 Common or Viviparous Lizard, Adder, Grass Snake and Slow Worm are partially protected under
Schedule 5 of The Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981), under part of Section 9(1) and all of Section
9(5). As such it is an offence to;
• intentionally kill or injure an individual of these species
• transport for sale or exchange, or offer for sale or exchange a live or dead an individual or any part
of an individual of these species.
• All native reptile species are UK BAP Priority Species (UK BAP, 2007), Slow Worms, Grass Snakes
and Adders are listed under the local Staffordshire BAP list.
2.3 Edgar, Foster & Baker (2010) note declines in all the common reptile species in Britain in recent
years, and in some regions severe. Factors may include:
• Habitat and micro-habitat degradation; Changes in land use such as agriculture and development;
• Fragmentation of habitats and population isolation; Ecological succession;
• Predation by domestic cats (and pheasants) and disturbance by dogs; Fire (especially moors and
heaths);
• Inappropriate conservation/habitat management; Overgrazing; Invasive exotic plant species;
• Damage to habitats by excessive visitor pressure/off-road vehicles; Deliberate killing by people,
especially adder, grass-snake and slow-worm.

3.0 Methodology
Desktop Survey Methodology
3.1 Ecological records were requested from the local ecological records centre (Staffordshire Ecological
Record). Details were obtained of all protected species recorded within a 1km radius of the site. The
National (UK) and local (Staffordshire Churnet Woodlands) Biodiversity Action Plans (BAPs) were
also interrogated for protected habitats and species relevant to this site.
Field Survey
3.2 To establish presence or absence, a minimum of seven visits were undertaken during the optimum
survey season, and under suitable weather conditions during May to early July 2014. Methodology
conformed to the standards outlined in the Herpetofauna Workers’ Manual (Gent and Gibson,
2003) and more specific guidelines in Froglife Advice Sheet 10: Reptile Survey (Froglife,
1999). A combination of methods were used, including:
• Artificial refuge survey;
3.3 Artificial refugia comprised of roofing felt mats (700 mm x 700 mm), which were laid down in habitat
areas considered potentially suitable for basking reptiles. In principal, reptiles take advantage of the
higher temperature radiated by these artificial refugia to optimize their body temperature, and can be
considered an effective way to establish presence/absence of reptiles, whilst remaining both ethical
and inert in the immediate landscape.
3.4 In accordance with Gent & Gibson (2003) refugia should be deployed at a density of at least 5-10/ha.
The site is approximately 1.1 hectares in area, although ca 0.2 hectares comprises of a steep sided
woodland strip which is to be retained within the development. Thus ten mats were calculated into
the survey methodology, and were placed in sunny areas near to exposed banks and cover, typically
areas of emerging bracken and marginal scrub. These were then left to bed down for 1 week prior to
the survey commencing, in order for them to establish in terms of suitable humidity and temperature
gradient, whilst allowing any reptiles to familiarize themselves to the additional refugia also
• Searching extant features likely to shelter reptiles;
3.5 There is a moderate to high degree of artificial and manmade features onsite that may attract
reptiles, including dead wood piles and building debris and rubble. Potential areas and features were
searched for reptiles during survey periods.
10
SR/Oakamoor/Reptile survey Land off Churnet View Road, Oakamoor, ST10 3AE Final Draft Issue 1/ August 2014
3.6 The location of both extant refugia and artifical refugia were mapped to record any reptile
distribution, and to calculate population density. All artificial refugia was removed from site upon
completion of the field surveys. In circumstances where reptiles are found, the refugia would be
checked for a further eight days to obtain a population size class assessment, in accordance with
recommendations set out by Hill et al. (2005).
• Careful observation of basking / moving reptiles.
3.7 Direct observation is the least reliable method of recording reptiles, although important to record
species such as common lizard which use refugia less frequently, and adder (Vipera berus ) can
frequently be seen basking in areas where they occur. Slow-worm are probably the least likely to be
observed because of their greater affinity for dense vegetation and subsurface habitats, although
they can be encountered quite frequently in some habitats, particularly where they are abundant.
• Timing and weather conditions.
3.8 To assess presence or absence, visual inspection of natural and artificial refugia was inspected per
week over a period of eight weeks total, in order to allow for any temporal variations over space and
time. Surveys commenced either between mid morning (9:00-11:00hrs) or late afternoon (16:00-
18:00hrs). Where possible, surveys were undertaken during optimal weather conditions (Air
temperature 10-20°C), in accordance with Gent and Gibson (2003).

SR/Oakamoor/Reptile survey Land off Churnet View Road, Oakamoor, ST10 3AE Final Draft Issue 1/ August 2014
Site Status Assessment
3.9 The four widespread species of reptile in the UK, i.e. common lizard Zootoca vivipara, slow-worm
Anguis fragilis, grass snake Natrix natrix and adder Vipera berus, are all protected under the terms
of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended), however, they are not fully protected under
European law. This level of protection prohibits the intentional killing and injuring and trade of these
reptiles. Where a survey identifies potential habitat for reptiles at a development site, a reptile survey
may be needed prior to submission of a planning application and mitigation may be required by
Natural England for any loss of reptile habitat as a result of a site’s re-development.
3.10 Each survey visit may reveal only a small sample of the reptile population occurring on site because
the proportion of individuals recorded varies according to weather, migration patterns etc. A
mechanism known as the Key Reptile Site Register can be used to obtain a basic evaluation of the
population size and importance of the site. It has been designed to identify and promote the
safeguarding of important reptile sites, with outstanding assemblages being the guiding principle in
judging sites.
3.11 To qualify for the Key Reptile Site Register, the site must meet at least one of the following criteria
(Froglife, 1999):
• Supports three or more reptile species
• Supports two snake species
• Supports an exceptional population of one species (see Table 1)
• Supports an assemblage of species scoring at least 4 (see Table 1)
• Does not satisfy any of the above but which is of particular regional importance due to local rarity

4.0 Results
Pre survey data
4.1 Desktop survey also provided multiple records (2008) of common lizard Zootoca viviparia from a
section of the disused railway line 369-487m from the centre of the site. Between 2003 and 2013
grass snake Natrix natrix was also recorded within 1km of this site, making it more likely that suitable
habitat at this site does support some reptile species, although there are historical records of slow
worm Anguis fragilis (1963-2001) within 600m of the site are recorded. The client believes he may
have seen reptiles on the site ca. five to six years ago; during which time, the site has been subject
to an increase in human, domestic pet disturbance, trespassing and general maintenance and
usage.
Field Survey
4.2 Given the excellent linear connectivity with surrounding higher ecological value habitats, there is
good potential for reptiles within the survey area. The partial removal of debris during pre-works has
also provided additional refuge in the form of log piles, that would further encourage reptiles onsite if
left to establish. Conversely, no species of reptile was recorded on site during the survey period (Full
survey result data and weather conditions can be found in Appendix 1).
5.0 Evaluation
Presence/Absence
5.1 During the survey no reptiles were evident during the survey periods, thus the proposed
development area does not meet the register criteria for a Key Reptile Site.
Site Status Assessment
5.2 Despite pre-survey information showing presence of reptiles in the immediate area, coupled with
excellent connectivity to optimal habitat, the survey results returned no evidence of reptiles onsite. A
number of contributing factors may explain this outcome; The site has undergone recent disturbance
due to authorized clearance of trees and general maintenance, resulting in potential habitat and
micro-habitat degradation; The land is close to residential dwellings and is subject to disturbance by
dogs and potential predation by domestic cats. There are Invasive exotic plant species onsite which
may degrade overall community habitat.
5.3 Due to the particularity warm weather encountered during the surveying periods, a number of
surveys were conducted at slightly higher temperatures than preferred, although this is not thought
to have been a significant limitation overall, as the surveys were spread over a longer time period to
allow for stochastic and temporal variation.
13
SR/Oakamoor/Reptile survey Land off Churnet View Road, Oakamoor, ST10 3AE Final Draft Issue 1/ August 2014
5.4 As such, the proposed development footprint is considered as being highly dynamic, beginning
initially as disturbed brownfield land, which is now in constant transitional flux between successional
stages of vegetation types. This coupled with historic data records, local knowledge and excellent
linear connectivity to surrounding higher ecological value habitats, would infer good potential for
reptiles to (re)colonize over time as seral stages continue to establish within this period. Thus it is
recommended that a Best practice dictates a precautionary approach in situations of uncertainty, and
will need to be taken to ensure observance of regulations, maintenance of the reptiles’ favourable
conservation status, and in observance of the Biodiversity Duty is upheld.
6.0 Impacts and Recommendations
Impacts
6.1 The site is the subject of a planning application to permit the construction of residential buildings,
which will involve substantial works on site. As no reptiles were identified it is not considered that the
proposed development will have any adverse impact on reptiles locally as none were identified
during the surveys.
Further Surveys
6.2 As no evidence of reptiles was recorded, further presence/absence surveys would only be deemed
necessary, should the recommended pre-works maintenance and clearance of the site be delayed
for more than one year. This recommendation is based on evidence that Reptiles are recorded within
a 1km radius; the highly labile nature of succession onsite, and subsequent increase in refuge
potential for reptiles as time elapses. (see section 6.5).
Legislation
6.3 Common Reptile species are partially protected under Schedule 5 of The Wildlife and Countryside
Act (1981), under part of Section 9(1) and all of Section 9(5). This means that they are protected
from killing or injury. No licence is required to permit development but some form of mitigation to
avoid contravention of the legislation afforded to common reptiles must be approved by the Local
Planning Authority Ecologist or the statutory consultee, which in this instance would be Natural
England. Maintenance of conservation status can be achieved in one or more of the following ways:
• Identification of a safe receptor site that will not be affected by works
• Use of exclusion fencing to prevent reptiles entering the working footprint
• Capture and translocation of reptiles
• Creation and/or enhancement of reptile habitat
• Post development management and monitoring.
14
SR/Oakamoor/Reptile survey Land off Churnet View Road, Oakamoor, ST10 3AE Final Draft Issue 1/ August 2014
Recommendations
Pre-development works
6.4 In addition to this reptile survey report, a Reasonable Avoidance Measure report for Great Crested
Newt and also Otter and Water vole has been produced by Charnia Ecology (2014a, 2014c), in order
to ecologically support the same planning application proposal. Upon consultation, the client has
happily agreed in principal to the erection of general wildlife fencing around the proposed
development area. This is intended to holistically deter/exclude and minimize potential impact to any
reptile and/or amphibian populations, plus small mammals that may migrate onto site during the
period prior to works commencing. Such fencing will also enable any species interned within the
application area to be safely corralled during site preparation and ushered out under their own
volition into receptor areas outside the western perimeter boundary.
6.5 It is also recommended that the site is cleared of extant refugia and selected vegetation to make it
less attractive to fauna overall. All pre-works site clearance should be undertaken under the
supervision of a suitably qualified ecologist, which will include a finger tip search ahead of any
machinery used. Such works should be undertaken outside the hibernation period (October to April)
and should include the following:
• To discourage reptiles from colonizing the site in future, the vegetation should be kept as low as
possible.
• Soil stripping works will progress in a systematic fashion from east to west within the application
• Supervision of ground preparation by an experienced and licensed ecologist;
• Erection of perimeter “wildlife” fencing;
Figure 2. Location of proposed wildlife fencing around proposed development area (Red).
15
SR/Oakamoor/Reptile survey Land off Churnet View Road, Oakamoor, ST10 3AE Final Draft Issue 1/ August 2014
Care and Vigilance During Works
6.6 Where supervision by a suitably qualified ecologist is not deemed necessary; contractors working in
the development area should be briefed on the following protocol in the event a reptile is found
during works:
• Halt work.
• Capture reptile using gloves.
• Place in container provided and store in the site office.
• Contact appointed ecological consultant to transfer reptiles found to a safe receptor site
and to seek confirmation that work can continue.
• Careful storage of building materials onsite;
• All works, plant and materials remain on existing open areas of hard-standing; avoiding
the surrounding boundaries and woodland margins.
• Immediate removal of waste and appropriate storage of waste materials;
Post-development works
• Removal of “wildlife” fencing;
• Sensitive incorporation of lighting within the development to prevent light spill onto
adjacent habitats (as discussed in bespoke ecological reports for bats (Charnia Ecology
2014b) and Otter/Water vole (Charnia Ecology 2014c) for the same application.
