Ashcombe Fold Ecology is a team of twenty two working out of Leeds and York. We have been going since 2011 and we have stayed deliberately regional, because knowing your patch properly is worth more to a client than a logo in every county.
Most of our work is repeat work for local developers, land managers and a handful of councils.

Survey and licensing, with great crested newts as our specialism. Bats, reptiles and breeding birds through the season.

Yorkshire, mainly. Leeds and York between them put most of our sites within an hour, and almost nobody stays away overnight.
If you want a job where you are home for tea most nights of the season, that is the honest pitch for working here.
The York team covers North Yorkshire and the north east of the region.
