Country Life April 15 2015

published 15 April 2015

This week in Country Life we delight in our native flora, from deciduous woods to windswept hillside; we venture into the Forest of Dean with an expert forager; we explain how Stratfield Saye, the magnificent Hampshire seat of the Duke of Wellington, has enjoyed a renewal; we report on the efforts to reintroduce the hazel dormouse and we learn to cook with rhubarb.
