Aug 20 - GONHS Offers Advice on North Gorge Redevelopment
GONHS notes, with interest, the recent Government notice of a tender for the redevelopment of North Gorge into an 'Eco Residential Scheme'.
The North Gorge is a unique site in Gibraltar, in terms of its geology and ecology. The cave/fissure systems below the site are distinct from the karstic systems elsewhere on the Rock. They tell a very different geological story to other caves in Gibraltar and should be conserved on this basis alone. In addition, the gorge habitat harbours the only known populations of a few plant species in Gibraltar, and these in turn support populations of insects that are restricted to the area. Not least, this is because the gorge habitat is itself unique on the Rock.
