Wild Fell
Fighting for nature on a Lake District hill farm
Lee Schofield
Discover the inspiring story of the restoration of over 3,000 hectares of the Lake District, from the smallest wildflowers to majestic golden eagles. Follow ecologist and farmer Lee Schofield's decade-long effort to restore the habitat of England's last and loneliest golden eagle, taking on fierce local opposition and the challenge of finding a balance between traditional hill farming and conservation. Join Schofield on his journey to seek out ancient wonders at the edges of denuded pastures, and learn how every aspect of the ecosystem is interconnected, and our actions can affect even the most majestic creatures.
