The Management of Ilkley Moor
The management of Ilkley Moor works to a plan and is not arbitary. Management prescriptions are determined by the Joint Nature Conservation Council and enforced by Natural England (the government’s advisors on nature conservation in England). NE sends all SSSI owners and occupiers a statement of what the ideal management should be.
These management prescriptions form the basis of Bradford Councils ‘Ilkley Moor Management Plan’. It is not legal or possible for the FoIM to pursue a different conservation agenda on the moor for the reasons set out above.
