Badgeworth SSSI, Gloucestershire
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Badgeworth SSSI (grid reference SO911206) is a 3.08 hectare biological Site of Special Scientific Interest in Gloucestershire, notified in 1954.
It is one of only two sites in Britain where the Adder's-tongue Spearwort (Ranunculus ophioglossifolius) occurs; in Gloucestershire this species has acquired the name "Badgeworth buttercup" through its association with this site.
This is a Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust nature reserve.
