Landscape – Index

Our islands have a variety of natural landscapes, from the limestone country of western Ireland, rolling hills of southern England to the sub-arctic environment on the high plateaux of central Scotland. Our individual and collective pysche is partly determined by the landscape about us and the flora and fauna we encounter in those places.
