Beech is on the western limit of its native distribution in Dorset, but is an important constituent of two ancient woodlands in the east of the county. Both are former wood-pasture. no information currently available 1. Maintain the extent and quality of the existing semi-natural resource. 2. Restore degraded semi-natural beech and yew woodlands. 3.
