These Birdhouses have been meticulously researched and designed by wildlife lovers in Cornwall and slipcast in the UK. They're designed to be sympathetic to the natural shape of a birds nest with a hole that is just the right size for a homemaking Blue Tit, Coal Tit or Long-tailed Tit, whilst preventing predators from getting in. And they attach easily with a simple hanging stainless steel cable to any branch.

Colour: Terracotta

Size: diameter 180mm. Entrance hole 25-28mm

Notes: each Birdball comes boxed with assembly and maintenance details enclosed

Small Bee Block - White

£13.50 £18.00

Bees. We really need our bee population and making a little space for them in your garden that they can call home is a simple way to help your local bee population to get a foot on the housing ladder. Each block is cast in concrete in Cornwall using 70% waste material from the Cornish China clay industry. These make homes for solitary bees which don’t produce honey or have a queen to protect so they’re not ‘aggressive’ bees. A great gift for any human wanting to do a little something for the natural world [also available in charcoal].

Colour: White

Size: 65mm x 70mm x 105mm.
