A book about Pomona is being compiled and is due to be published in mid-October 2016

There are around 25-30 co-writers of the book, including local ecologists, wildlife film makers, students, journalists, artists and MMU academics

Pomona is a superb urban habitat that is popular with birders and 100 species of birds and 150 species of Flora have been recorded

The book aims to illustrate the potential of the site as a wildlife area and cover issues of urban land usage

A launch event is being planned to celebrate the publication in October
