These meadows have a wealth of grassland flowers, including cowslip, green-winged orchid and adder's tongue.
Each of the meadows has somewhat differing plant communities reflecting past differences of grazing, mowing and manuring treatment. They contain a wealth of grassland flowers: cowslip, the now rare green-winged orchid, spotted-orchid, adder's-tongue, great burnet, saw-wort, dyer's greenweed and devil's-bit scabious. This rich flora is maintained by continuing the traditional management of hay cropping and grazing.
