Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Warwickslade Cutting: information board in Brock Hill car park "Restoration work to the river running through Brinken Wood will be taking place over the next few months.
In the past, people tried to tame the natural watercourses by straightening and deepening rivers, [which] resulted in faster flowing rivers, increased erosion and drying out of adjacent wetland habitats. Over the summer months the Forestry Commission will be working with a team of highly skilled and experienced 'surgeons' to recreate the original course of the river and heal the cuts of the deep drains. This is major surgery, so the scars will take a little while to heal - but the end result will be a fitter, healthier river, which will sustain the forest for many more years to come." |
