A project to boost biodiversity by building nest boxes into new homes is celebrating ten years of success.

The Duchy of Cornwall has been working with the RSPB since 2014 to incorporate the boxes into the walls of its developments.

The initiative aims to enhance wildlife across its communities and inspire other new developments to do the same.

So far, 1,289 integrated nest boxes have been installed at the Duchy's projects in Nansledan and Tregunnel Hill in Newquay, Trevethow Riel in Truro, and Poundbury in Dorset.
