UGHILL FARM

James Hargreaves

Ughill farm is low grade, marginal farmland on the western edge of Sheffield. It is an important site for curlews, golden plover and other nationally threatened wading birds that come to our moors each spring in order to breed. The farm also includes a small area of internationally important Eastern Moors Site of Special Scientific Interest and lies within the Peak District National Park.

Temporarily saved

Thankfully, with the support of the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation, Ughill Farm has now been temporarily saved.

But we only have a year to pay back the Foundation in order for the Trust to own the land forever or it will once again go on to the open market. We need your help to raise £1.2million by the end of November 2023, to take ownership of Ughill Farm, begin our plans to let nature & wildlife flourish and keep the Ughill curlews safe forever.
