These consist of a gas main and foul sewer with manhole which are restricting the alignment and depth of the new channel. In addition the catchment itself is a constraint. London Clay underlies the site and downstream sections. However as the catchment rises a transition occurs to more permeable Chalk. This combination of a permeable upper catchment and urban build up may have contributed to the flashy nature of the Pyl Brook. Therefore the scheme has to cope with low base flows and peaky responses during storm events. 51.375408172607,-0.21032004058361 Joanna Environment Agency Heisse Bank reprofiling,,Creation of new channel, Habitat creation ,,Aesthetics, 12701 London Borough of Sutton, 2008-01-01Z 2454466.5 Complete Divert existing Pyl Brook channel near culvert entrance through Hamilton Avenue recreation ground and reconnect it into the existing watercourse 113m downstream. The total length of the diversion channel is 164m which effectively increases the watercourse length by 51m. The new channel will incorporate a sinuous channel with riffles, pools and berms. The old channel will be partially infilled and will form an undisturbed island of habitat between the new and old channels. Some of the toe boarding will be removed and used in habitat elsewhere on site. New and upgraded footpaths, wildlife flower grass areas and bridge across Pyl Brook will be provided. The site is situated within the Kimpton Industrial Area and forms part of a wider proposal to create a Linear Park around the Industrial Estate. This forms part of the UDP objectives for the Industrial area and associated environmental and recreational enhancements in the area. The works are being carried out by the London Borough of Sutton. The Environment Agency have been consulted regarding the diversion and re-routing of a section of the Pyl Brook as part of the Planning Application and the Consenting process.
