A project to increase biodiversity in a 'boring' Somerset woodland has enjoyed a promising start.

Work is being under taken at Goblin Combe, a former plantation woodland in the north of the county, by the Avon Wildlife Trust in a bid to boost the populations of three species of bat and Hazel Dormouse.

The site was previously a timber plantation, meaning the trees "are quite young and quite dull" for wildlife, reserve manager Andy Jones said.
