Rewilding background
The estate has been rewilded for 40+ years. We understand from the owner that Professor Alastair Driver, the head of Rewilding Britain, said that some of the Trewern landscapes remind him of Knepp Castle, that he is a trustee of. Knepp Castle is a 3,500 acre rewilding project in West Sussex.
