New Scrape takes Shape

Pond and sediment trap near Great Gidding

This improvement to a wide ditch near Great Gidding will:

·        Slow down surface run-off from 40ha of farm land

·        capture sediment and prevent it from entering the wider brook network

·        Provide a new wetland habitat

We are tremendously grateful to owner Michael, to Silver Fern for their excellent work, and ornithologist Dick for checking the site before work started. Also to WEIF for their grant to do the work
