Churchtown Farm is a community nature reserve one mile south of Saltash, Cornwall, United Kingdom. It is owned and managed by Cornwall Wildlife Trust, and includes diverse habitats such as grassland, estuarine mudflats, wetland, woodland, disused quarries and hedgerows.[1]
Situated within the Tamar Valley AONB, and positioned between the rivers Tamar and Lynher, the majority of the reserve is farmland. This includes hay meadows and arable fields. At 61 hectares, it is the third biggest reserve that the Cornwall Wildlife Trust owns.
Oystercatchers, Dunlin, Egrets, Avocets and Greenshank can all be seen on the mudflats
