Abstract

This paper explores issues of scale and difference within a study of rural gentrification and nature that draws on social science and natural science theories and methods. The paper discusses how these issues emerged as being of significance both within social science studies of gentrification, rural restructuring and landscape studies and also within ecological analysis of village space. The paper suggests that nature is a significant presence in village space, with green vegetated space forming both a quantitatively significant amount of village settlement envelopes and also being of clear significance to inhabitants of at least one village in Melton District in Leicestershire.
