Blackdowns website revamped
1:37pm Wednesday 14th May 2008
A NEW website all about the Blackdown Hills has been launched this week.
The totally revamped site from the Blackdown Hills AONB is features free walking guides, places to visit, diary dates, information about the area and more.
Visitors to www.blackdown-hills.net will find information about the hills' Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty status, as well as a packed calendar of countryside events.
There are facts about local wildlife and landscape, and a gallery of pictures which the public can add to. There are free walking and horse riding routes to download, and links to local businesses.
The site is designed to be a resource for anyone with an interest in the Blackdowns, from landowners and conservationists to local people with business ideas and families looking for something to do at the weekend.
Feedback about the new site will be very much welcomed by the AONB team, which is based in Hemyock.
