Damage a marsh and all you need do is add a SANG (a suitable alternative natural green space): this is what local authorities so often do. The SANG (we used to call them fields, or meadows, but now expect children to have fond memories of their sunny summer holidays playing in the SANG) – the SANG is a bit of grass with a cycle track, a dog walkers’ area, probably somewhere to fly a kite (nice enough), somewhere to kick a ball about. Probably, the SANG is placed on what was a decent little wet meadow to start with, rather than on a bit of old, dry field that no-one would miss. So you lose the wet meadow, the orchids, the comfrey and agrimony, the butterflies and grasshoppers, the sedge warblers and stonechats and snipe, the grass snakes and frogs and toads and hedgehogs, and you get a bit of bare ground where even a magpie would have second thoughts.
