Title

Sulwath Centre and Wildlife Gardens (RSPB)

Description

Converted from a nineteenth century farmhouse, the Sulwath Centre was opened in April 2009 to promote  lifelong learning on the Solway. Located in the heart of Mersehead RSPB Nature Reserve, the Centre incorporates education and training rooms, reception and office facilities, as well as providing accommodation
for residential volunteers and field studies students. The Centre has many green credentials, including a wood pellet boiler and solar thermal panels. The surrounding land has been transformed into wildlife gardens, for particular use by visiting schoolchildren.
