Heathland is characteristic of acidic and nutrient-poor soils. Heathland sites should be managed to keep their ecological value, which depends on an open and diverse vegetation structure. In some cases herbicide application may be needed such as for some scrub or bracken control. Larger sites will often also include areas of acid grassland or wetland habitats - the transitional zones between heathland and such habitats are particularly valuable.

If a heathland site is neglected or poorly managed, it is likely to lead to bare ground disappearing and an increase in cover of scrub, bracken, gorse, invasive grasses or secondary woodland. The removal or disturbance of top soil may be needed, to create or maintain some features, such as bare ground.

Do not create bare ground on historic or archaeological features.
