Hadlow Butterflies
Hadlow is a fairly typical Low Weald parish in the West of Kent, stretching from the gravelly floodplains of the River Medway in the south through mixed farmland to the clay woodlands in the north of the Parish – and there are some great butterflies found in its different habitats. This site is about these butterflies and where and when they can be found in the parish.
