Wind in the Willows home in danger

Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust have reported that the Moor Copse on the river Pang by Pangbourne, inspiration for Kenneth Grahame's Wind in the Willows has gone up for sale. This is a last vital habitat for the threatened river vole ('ratty' from book). To save it for the future, the trust wish to buy the land, doubling the size of the wildlife refuge on the riverbank.

They only have first refusal to buy Moor Copse for the nxt few weeks and need to raise £200,000.
