Description

A historic RAF watch office in Hampshires New Forest is being transformed into a bat-friendly holiday home. The Landmark Trust plans to preserve the buildings original features while creating a cozy four-bedroom retreat with a roof terrace. The project has received approval from local councillors and Natural England, with strict bat protections in place. The trust aims to raise funds to restore the building and convert a nearby blast shelter into additional roost space for six bat species. The project is a tribute to the brave pilots and ground crew from the Battle of Britain days and demonstrates the importance of preserving history while protecting local wildlife.
