SSSIs have site description, PDOs, historical data on notifications, site area and central gri reference, cross refrence sites and responsible officers. Other designations have similar information excluding the PDO list which is only relevant to SSSIs. There are also some Commons with limited data recorded on the system. The purpose of this data capture was to collate information on protected sites in Wales, and provide historical data on designation dates aiding the reporting process for designations in Wales.
