Dunsmore and Feldon, Western Mixed

Author(s): Jeremy Lake

This area occupies most of the eastern part of Warwickshire. The area is bordered by Leamington Spa, Coventry and Rugby in the north. The area is bounded by the Northamptonshire Uplands to the south-east, by Arden to the west and the Cotswolds to the south. Dunsmore is a primarily agricultural landscape with extensive arable and improved pasture, although it retains a heathy character and has extensive woodlands. Feldon is characterised by open pastoral farmland on heavy clay soils. Of the area, 7% is urban, less than 4% is woodland, and 1% is in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
