The Devil's Kneading Trough is part of the Wye National Nature Reserve owned and managed by Natural England. The chalk grassland is renowned for the range of orchids it supports; 21 species have been recorded at the site including lady orchid, fly orchid and the rare late and early spider orchid and man orchid.The dramatic coombe is managed for wildlife by grazing by White Park cattle. This helps to maintain the grassland in such a way as to create an ideal habitat for many insect and flower species species. As well as grassland the reserve includes areas of scrub, woodland and over 3.5 km of hedgerows. These habitats support around 50 breeding bird species including nightingale, hawfinch, lesser spotted woodpecker and kestrel. Reptiles found here include adder, grass snake, slow worm and common lizard.
