Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Information board at entrance to Castle Eden Dene The board reads: Castle Eden Dene is the largest of eight very deep valleys, or denes which cut spectacularly into the gently rolling countryside of Eastern County Durham and run to the North Sea coast. Because of the comparative inaccessibility of the steep wooded valley sides, the denes have escaped clearance for agriculture, leaving them as precious remnants of ancient woodland.
The combination of landscape and unusual soils formed in the magnesian limestone has created a variety of habitats within the denes and these have become home to a remarkable range of wildlife, particularly flowers and insects.
Today the site is managed for the benefit of the unique wildlife that thrives here as well as for the thousands of people who visit each year.
Français : Panneau d'acceuil et d'information situé à l'entrée du site Castle Eden Dene. Il dit que ce site est la plus grande des huit vallées profondes (ou denes) qui coupent spectaculaire dans la campagne vallonnée du comté de Durham Est en se prolongeant vers le littoral de la mer du Nord.
En raison de l'inaccessibilité relative des flancs de la vallée boisées, les denes ont échappé aux défrichements agricoles et à l'exploitation et constituent de précieux vestiges de forêts anciennes. La combinaison de paysages et des sols inhabituels (formées dans le calcaire magnésien) explique une variété d'habitats originaux et la présence d'une variété remarquable de faune, flore et fonge (fleurs et insectes notamment).
Ce site est aujourd'hui protégé et géré pour le bénéfice de la faune unique qui s'y développe, ainsi que pour celui des milliers de personnes qui le visitent chaque année
