Bat Tiles:
Provide help for our bats with our range of bat friendly roof tiles.
Did you know that all UK bats and their roosts are protected by law? The Wildlife and Countryside Act introduced in 1981, gave legal protection to all bat species and their roosts in England.
Distinct species of bats prefer differing places to roost. The two most usually found species of bat in the UK are the Pipistrelle and Brown Long-Eared Bat. Pipistrelle prefer confined spaces such as under tiles on roofs and hanging spaces. The Brown Long-Eared Bat prefer roof timbers and ridges inside lofts. Heritage Clay Tiles can provide purpose made access points within your roof tiles or ridge tiles. The Bat Tile Set can form part of a mitigation package required by law for existing roosts or as potential access where a roost had not previously been present.

A little information about Bedfordshire
Anglo-Saxon Bedfordshire
Early fifth century Saxon burial sites have been discovered at Kempston and Sandy, these are two Bedfordshire towns situated on the River Great Ouse and its tributary the River Ivel, as well as at Luton, in the south of the county on the River Lea. These sites are all in the vicinity of former Roman towns, suggesting that these may have been the site of Saxon foederati employed by Romano-British inhabitants to protect their towns. A seventh century settlement at Stratton, near Biggleswade in Bedfordshire has also been found.
This part of Bedfordshire may have remained part of a British enclave until the Battle of Bedcanford, which was the original name for Bedford in 571, when Cuthwulf delivered a crushing defeat on the Britons and took the towns of Eynsham, Aylesbury, Benson and Limbury.
During the Heptarchy what is now Bedfordshire formed part of Mercia; by the Treaty of Wedmore it became part of the Danelaw. The Heptarchy were the seven petty kingdoms of Anglo-Saxon England that flourished from the Anglo-Saxon settlement of Britain in the 5th century until they were consolidated in the 8th century into the four kingdoms of Mercia, Northumbria, Wessex and East Anglia.
Viking hoards in Bedfordshire
The Vikings that had settled in the Bedfordshire town of Bedford were subdued by King Edward the Elder in 915, and he built two burhs at Bedford on each side of the River Ouse. Four hundreds were formed on each side to support each burgh. The boundary to the north largely coincides with the watershed between the Nene and Ouse rivers, presumed to also be the boundary between the land of the Vikings based at Bedford and Northampton; the western boundary aligns with the Newport Hundreds, similarly laid out to support the new burh at Newport Pagnell, and the eastern boundary with the hundreds of Huntingdon.
King Canute in Bedfordshire
The first mention of the county of Bedfordshire comes in 1016 when King Canute laid waste to the entire shire. Cnut, as he is sometimes referred to, was King of England from 1016, King of Denmark from 1018, and King of Norway from 1028 until his death in 1035. The three kingdoms united under Cnut's rule are referred to together as the North Sea Empire.
As a Danish prince, Cnut won the throne of England in 1016 in the wake of centuries of Viking activity in north-western Europe. His later accession to the Danish throne in 1018 brought the crowns of England and Denmark together. Cnut sought to keep this powerbase by uniting Danes and the English under cultural bonds of wealth and custom. After a decade of conflict with opponents in Scandinavia, Cnut claimed the crown of Norway in Trondheim in 1028. The Swedish city Sigtuna was held by Cnut. In 1031, Malcolm II of Scotland also submitted to him, though Anglo-Norse influence over Scotland was weak and ultimately did not last by the time of Cnut's death.
William the Conqueror takes Bedfordshire
The county town of Bedfordshire was a defended town, or burh, before the Norman Conquest of 1066, when William the Conqueror took control of the land. For two hundred years or so it was on the borders of the Danelaw, which lay to the east, an area under Danish control, though subject to the Kings of England formed by the royal family of Wessex. Edward the Elder, King of the Anglo-Saxons strengthened the southern defences of the Bedfordshire town in around 915. King Edward marched with his army to Bedford, before Martinmas and seized the borough; and took control of nearly all the citizens, who lived there before. The King remained in the Bedfordshire town for four weeks, and before he left, he ordered the borough on the south side of the river to be built.
