The site was identified as important in 2019 because it was regularly supporting significant populations of the species listed below, meeting ('triggering') IBA criteria.
Populations meeting IBA criteria ('trigger species'):Species | Current IUCN Red List Category | Season | Year(s) | Population estimate at site | IBA criteria met |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Little Tern Sternula albifrons | LC | breeding | 2016-2017 | 50-70 breeding pairs | C6 |
Common Tern Sterna hirundo | LC | breeding | 2016-2017 | 40-60 breeding pairs | C6 |
Common Kingfisher Alcedo atthis | LC | resident | 2013-2019 | 50-80 breeding pairs | B1b, C6 |
Collared Sand Martin Riparia riparia | LC | breeding | 2008-2013 | 2,100-2,300 breeding pairs | B1b |
The current IUCN Red List category may differ from that which was valid at the time of IBA criteria assessment (2019).

Year of assessment (most recent) | State (condition) | Pressure (threat) | Response (action) |
2016 | not assessed | very high | negligible |
Was the whole site assessed? | State assessed by | Accuracy of information | |

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats) | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Threat level 1 | Threat level 2 | Timing | Scope | Severity | Result |
Biological resource use | hunting & collecting terrestrial animals - intentional use (species being assessed is the target) | happening now | whole area/population (>90%) | moderate to rapid deterioration | very high |
Energy production and mining | mining and quarrying | happening now | majority/most of area/population (50-90%) | very rapid to severe deterioration | very high |
Human intrusions and disturbance | work and other activities | happening now | whole area/population (>90%) | moderate to rapid deterioration | very high |
Invasive and other problematic species and genes | invasive non-native/alien species/diseases - unspecified species | happening now | whole area/population (>90%) | moderate to rapid deterioration | very high |
Transportation and service corridors | roads and railroads | likely in short term (within 4 years) | some of area/population (10-49%) | slow but significant deterioration | medium |
