Project summary
Restoration scheme delivered in 2023. We were approached by the Parish Council with interest to restore the river on their reach, but most of the works undertaken on private neighbouring land.
760m of main River Mease restoration including 2.5ha riparian habitat improvement.
Bank reprofiling, backwater creation, large woody material addition, gravel addition to add a diversity of flows and riparian habitat. Scrape creation and ditch enhancement, woodland thinning and dead hedgerow creation to enhance the wood to become a wet woodland at lower flows.
Monitoring surveys and results
Post works invertebrate sampling undertaken.
Fixed point photography.
Drone footage taken during and after works.
Lessons learnt
This case study is pending approval by a RiverWiki administrator.
