This video is the first part of a three part series, in which we introduce lichenologist April Windle.
Lichens are everywhere. Burials grounds are one of the most valuable ecological sites for lichens due to their longevity, traditional management and abundant rocky surfaces.
We have some information and a downloadable guide to lichens here: https://www.caringforgodsacre.org.uk/resources/lichens/
The filming for this video took place at St Andrew’s Church, Kenn, Devon. Thank you to everyone who enabled us in this. https://burialgrounds-places.nbnatlas.org/places/10026397
