Mar Lodge Estate Consultation Draft Management Plan
Mar Lodge Estate has been managed since 1995 to conserve its landscape, archaeological sites, historic buildings, wildlife and other cultural and natural heritage features; to provide public benefit through both access and conservation; whilst still functioning as a highland sporting estate.
The Trust’s work at Mar Lodge is progressing through its ownership. The Management Principles have established our vision for how we care for the estate, and the first fifteen years have set in train a process which will influence management far into the future.
Management planning seeks to define what is important to do, and when and how to do it. We are holding this public consultation in order to highlight the wide range of activity that takes place on Mar Lodge Estate and to ask for your input as we review the management plan and produce our work priorities for the next five years.
The PDF file available in the ‘downloads’ section opposite are posted here for your information and cover some of the most significant areas as we understand them. There may be other areas of work that you think are important, if so please tell us about them. The Consultation Draft Management Plan provides more detail in the rationale sections and guides how these activities may be carried out over the next five years. Please provide comment to us on this document to either of the following addresses by 16 May 2011:
