Sheep, Cliffe Marshes

Cliffe Marshes cover over 500ha north of the village of Cliffe on the Hoo peninsula. Most of the area is drained by channels and is given over to wet grassland grazing. Cooling Marshes and Halstow Marshes can be included in Cliffe Marshes. In 2002 they were identified as a possible site for London's third airport, but dropped in 2003. Much of the area is an environmentally sensitive area.
