	Benacre NNR
		Benacre NNR is a National Nature Reserve in Suffolk, England within The Broads National Park, maintained by English Nature.
		It consists of three isolated broads in the River Waveney area:
		Whilst the broads in Norfolk came about through peat digging in the Middle Ages, the Benacre broads are lakes formed in shallow valleys when glacial[?] drift blocked off the outflow to the sea.

	Benacre NNR - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Benacre NNR is a National Nature Reserve in Suffolk, England.
		Although it is called a "Broad", it is not a true Broad in the accepted sense, nor is it within The Broads National Park.
		Benacre NNR consists of three isolated "broads" near the River Waveney, but not part of the Broads river network:

	BirdForum - Benacre Broad
		Benacre Broad is situated on the Suffolk Coast between Lowestoft in the North and Southwold in the South.
		At the western end of the broad there are a series of “Bunds” which protect the frequent inundations from the sea from reaching the freshwater marshes.
		If the broad is full all the birds will be at the far end but later in the year the water drains out and this is when the exposed mud can be a great challenge to search.

	The Benacre Estate - Wildlife (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Benacre National Nature Reserve is rightly recognised as one of the finest wildlife sites in Britain and indeed is important in a European context for its birds and coastal broads.
		Easton valley to the south is the second largest reedbed in England and it is here together with the reedbeds at Covehithe and Benacre broads that you are likely to see marsh harriers and bearded reedlings.
		Throughout the summer and autumn, the broad supports large numbers of waders, which feed on the masses of invertebrates living within the exposed mud.

		As such it is part of the SUFFOLK HERITAGE COAST, which includes the English Nature Reserve at Benacre Broad, a breeding area for species of terns that are endangered.
		This coastline is in the main being eroded, largely due to the fragile nature of the sand and gravel cliffs which overlay impermeable layers of clays.
		Benacre and Covehithe Broads are only protected from the sea by a shingle bank.

	White Admiral 45- SUFFOLK BIODIVERSITY
		The lagoon complexes at Benacre, Covehithe and Easton (Benacre to Easton Bavents SSSI) and Orfordness-Shingle Street (Alde-Ore Estuary SSSl) are candidate Special Areas of Conservation (cSAC) under the Habitats Directive.
		At Benacre, Covehithe and Easton broads, implementation of this policy will result in loss of land, including the existing saline lagoons, over the next 75 years.
		Several new lagoons, covering approximately 1.5 ha, were created at the eastern end of Benacre Broad by English Nature in 1996 and at Southwold by the Environment Agency.

	Benacre to Easton Bavents Lagoons - Special Area of Conservation - SAC
		Benacre to Easton Bavents Lagoons is a series of percolation lagoons on the east coast of England.
		The lagoons (the Denes, Benacre Broad, Covehithe Broad and Easton Broad) have formed behind shingle barriers and are a feature of a geomorphologically dynamic system.
		This range of salinity has resulted in a series of lagoonal vegetation types, including beds of narrow-leaved eelgrass Zostera angustifolia in fully saline or hypersaline conditions, beds of spiral tasselweed Ruppia cirrhosa in brackish water, and dense beds of common reed Phragmites australis in freshwater.

	Review of birds in the Lowestoft area in 2000
		An adult LAUGHING GULL, Larus atricilla, flying south past Benacre Broad on the 30th and a BLACK GUILLEMOT, Cepphus grylle, in Hamilton Dock mid-month remain unconfirmed.
		Two Crossbills, Loxia curvirostra, were noted at Ashby on the 25th, whilst 3 Shags, Phalacrocorax aristotelis, continued to roost on the Kittiwake wall in the harbour at Lowestoft.
		Judging by the records of raptors over Oulton Broad in recent years it seems to be a regular migration route, a theory supported by a HONEY BUZZARD, Pernis apivorus, on the 24th, which drifted over.

	Walk #259: Gorleston-on-Sea to Southwold
		It was another quite warm day for the time of year, although first thing in the morning I was quite cold and had to wear my balaclava to keep my face warm.
		It is then simply a case of following the beach as it heads southwards, although I did take a cliff top path for the section between Benacre Broad and Covehithe Broad.
		The walk ends at the pier in Southwold, which is situated just south of the end of the Easton Cliffs.

		They are listed as a priority Annex I habitat in the Habitats Directive.
		The habitat type is complex, and a wide range of physical types and origins can be included in the broad definition.
		The habitat is also relatively uncommon in the UK (and consequently is listed as a priority habitat under the UK's Biodiversity Action Plan (UK Biodiversity Group 1999)).

		In the case of some, such as Benacre Broad, this has already led to a substantial reduction in the size and quality of the reedbed.
