Dear Susanne
I think that it is good that you have a critical eye for what is reported. I
had a quick look at your list, and there may be some redundancies, see comments
in your text. Furthermore, as far as I recall the guidelines, the facilities
should be distinctive and of general interest. Offices, general labs, fields,
greenhouses do not qualify for this, I think. If the greenhouses are to be
included as a facility, for instance, I think the EFRC should provide a
description of their distinctive character and general interest (e.g. organic
prehistory or something like this).
Just a hasty comment,
Hugo

How is this different from Elm Farm above - are these two different facilites?
